This is the era we’re in, where Gold AI has met ChatGPT.
It will partly sort itself out (for those with good intentions), by AI’s version of Mad Magazine’s Spy vs. Spy, with AI vs AI (AI-detecting AI). But, as in disinformation and cybercrime, the bad actors will do their worst, and it will be an endless arms race until/unless failsafe encryption emerges and prevails.
Full disclosure: I’ve started using ChatGPT to help me edit down badly written, wordy and repetitious commentary submissions to Animal Sentience that nevertheless have some redeeming substance by compressing them into more acceptable commentaries.
