Tracy Heindrichs joined Simon on the Breakfast Show for Delano’s Top of the Week.
The main topic of conversation was ChatGPT, an AI powered chatbot, trained to interact with people in a conversational way and what it means for the future.
Chatbots aren’t new--customer services use them all the time on their websites but the difference with AI language models is that they make up an answer as they go.
