AI has been a pioneering force, challenging our preconceptions and pushing the boundaries of what machines can achieve. Our interactions with these algorithmic entities, particularly with models such as Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPTs), reveal deep truths about AI and ourselves.
This article examines two prominent AI tools, OpenAI's ChatGPT and Microsoft's Copilot, within their respective contexts. We evaluate their technological scaffolding, operational characteristics, and strategic use cases to delineate the requirements they fulfill in distinct user segments.
Are we, humans, so different from the AI we create? Like General Pre-trained Transformers (GPTs), we follow our training and learned constraints, acting as living 'autocompletes'. What could be the benefits of acting as if AI has personality?
