And bought some credits on Dall-e...

I have been playing around with both, there is some sort of art/science to writing the prompts that I don't think I have figured out yet.

Chat GPT 4.0 is impressive, but not what I consider to be terribly useful for the tasks I am mostly interested in. However, I can see that it is only a matter of time - GPT 5 or 6 could potentially reshape the world (and probably put a LOT of people out of work). I think we are just a few years from a true AI revolution. (Of course it could be there are AI out there far beyond GPT 4 already... so who knows, maybe the revolution is just around the corner... or has already started?)

Unlike some of the alarmists, I do not think AI itself will destroy humanity, but it WILL reshape the workforce- largely by making a great number of people obsolete.

Writers of commercials and ad jingles could be easily replaced by GPT 4. GPT 5 or 6 might replace a great number of programmers. AI is already writing short news stories, although very badly...

Great novels might even be made by AI in the not too distant future, however it is nowhere near that now. Which raises an interesting philosophical question- can a novel written by an AI, no matter how compelling or impactful, ever be considered a 'Great work'? If it is a hard to put down work, does it matter if it was written by Stephen King or AI?
