But they are here and hundreds of millions of people are using them every day and it's quite dangerous.

And there are some good uses and there are a lot of quite dangerous uses.

And I just want people to understand them.

Whether you like it or not, I think we are now going to be living alongside machines.

And the way we communicate with these machines is going to be through our natural language, through our words.

And so it's probably wise to just know how to do that well, how to speak to them properly.

And if you don't want to use any of them ever at all,

Yes, yes.

There are some guides online from these places as well.

But like, for example, you know how we've all become obsessed with Dr. Google and we constantly search our symptoms and we diagnose ourselves and turn up in the doctors telling them what we've got.

Well, it's sort of magnified now with chat GPT because you have a conversation with the model.

But people don't really realize that, for example, they'll put in partial symptoms or they won't put in details about their age.

They won't put in details about their medical history.

But they'll have a really fluent answer from a chat bot and then turn up to the doctors absolutely convinced that they know what they've got.

It's even worse than it was with Dr. Google, even more potentially dangerous.

But, yeah, no one in a public health body yet is really explaining to people, like, this is how you might use them, this is why they're quite dangerous, quite risky.

But, look, it is so quick.

This stuff has been around for, like, three years.

That's a blink of an eye.

I've been working in technology, writing about technology for 15 or 20 years, and I've never...
