Beyond ChatGPT: AI companions and the human side of AI - Jaime Banks, Associate Professor
We often think of AI as the text-based ChatGPT tool that has become so popular since its launch. But there are many other ways we are using AI, including to develop personas that play the role of companions. Humans are forming romantic or very personal relationships with AI, and find these relationships in some cases more rewarding than their relationships with other humans. Jaime Banks, Associate Professor at the iSchool, joins professor Jenny Stromer-Galley to discuss the future of AI from this human perspective.
