I’ve just asked ChatGPT the following question:

Is there a reason to publish content for free only to have it regurgitated without any attribution by an ML algorithm?

Here is the answer:

There is no inherent reason to publish content for free only to have it regurgitated without attribution by an ML algorithm. However, some people may choose to do so for a variety of reasons. For example, they may want to share information or ideas with a wide audience, and they may not be concerned with receiving attribution for their work. Additionally, publishing content for free and allowing it to be used by others, including ML algorithms, can help to promote the dissemination of information and ideas, which can ultimately benefit society as a whole.

It’s a very interesting post. More than the bots becoming closer to humans in their behavior, the real concern in my opinion is about increasing number of people who get emotional with technologies. We already come across teens who commit suicides because their parents temporarily deprive them of mobile phones, video games, or prevent them from social media activism, etc. In addition, we make movies like “Her” with a very emotional story in which a man and a mobile OS fall in deep and intimate love, and there’s a sign when these movies become largely accepted and liked, and worse, followed. That’s the real concern. So I’m the world where hype control our ability to think, we are already the real threat, more than technology.
