AI Tells a Story: Scene 4
It’s week four of the foray into the guts of ChatGPT (and, by association, its chatbot friends). Analysis of its fictional narrative becomes even more critical. By that I mean, I become more critical of AI chatbots.

AI Tells a Story: Scene 2
Last time, for the first time, I proposed a look at artificial intelligence. I suggested that the key to any threat it represents is how we use it. You remember? The innocuous tool that we can choose to use, like a pipe wrench, to bludgeon our enemies like the mindless zombies that they are. Of course, if we discover they are not mindless, or zombies, we must refrain from murder.
In week two of this series, I bring you the second scene of a short story written by ChatGPT. I will analyze its value as a fictional narrative in an unsophisticated manner.
