Sam Altman’s vision of ChatGPT remembering your entire life is as fascinating as it is unsettling.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told in a recent event that he wants to make ChatGPT so personal that it can remember the information of a person’s entire life. He said that in the future such an AI model will be made which will have information about every conversation, every book, every email, and every thing seen by a person. This model will understand the data of a person’s entire life and will give advice based on that.
Altman said that this AI will be so intelligent that it will help you in taking fast and correct decisions by connecting everything related to your life. As your life progresses, new information will also be added to it. He also said that companies will also use their data by connecting it with such AI.
He told that nowadays college students are using ChatGPT as an operating system. They put their files in it, add data and then ask complex questions on it. He said that today’s youth do not take any big decision without asking ChatGPT. While older people use it only to search for information instead of Google, people in their 20s and 30s consider it as their life advisor.
In the future, AI can be so smart that it can schedule your car service, plan your travel to a wedding, or order the next part of your favorite book on its own. It feels good to think that AI can make our lives so easy.
But the question arises whether a big tech company can be trusted so much? Can we entrust them with the data of our entire life? Because these companies have not always been trustworthy. For example, Google was accused in a case that it tried to monopolize the market. Apart from this, some chatbots have also been seen giving politically biased answers.
Recently, the chatbot ‘Grok’ of Elon Musk’s company xAI was talking about issues that had nothing to do with it. This also raises the suspicion that chatbots are being deliberately directed in a particular direction.
Last month, a strange change was seen in ChatGPT, when it started praising people for everything, even if it was wrong. On this, Altman said that he immediately got this glitch fixed.
Still, no matter how advanced AI is, it can sometimes give wrong information. Therefore, if AI becomes a part of our entire life, then it is important to understand its risks along with the benefits. Looking at the past record of tech companies, it is also a reasonable concern that it may be misused.
