i might have been convinced that chatbots could’ve had some utility as sort of advanced ‘rubber duck debugging’, but in my humble opinion talking to an actual rubber ducky is a superior process because literal rubber duckies are not known for telling us to kill ourselves unless we’ve taken a truly apocalyptic quantity of hallucinogens.
One of my coworkers who’s into AI has a chatbot set to behave as they were an elder got, talk about code as incantations, etc.
I wonder if, had he requested it be a velociraptor, he would have gotten mostly aggressive reptilian noises as a response.
