The World’s Third Richest Man Says He Is Addicted To ChatGPT

The World’s Richest Man Is Addicted To ChatGPT

Gautam Adani, one of the world’s richest men, claims to be addicted to ChatGPT, a new AI tool that interacts with users in an eerily lifelike and conversational manner.

The 60-year-old Indian tycoon said in a LinkedIn post last week that the launch of ChatGPT was a “transformational moment in the democratization of AI given its incredible capabilities as well as comical failures.”

Since starting to use ChatGPT, the billionaire has admitted to having developed “some addiction” to it.

The tool, which was released by the artificial intelligence research firm OpenAI late last year, has sparked debates about how “generative AI” services, which can turn prompts into original essays, stories, songs, and images after training on vast online datasets, could drastically change how we live and work.

Some argue it will eliminate the need for artists, teachers, developers, and writers. Others are more hopeful, predicting that it will allow staff to complete to-do lists more efficiently.

“However, there is no doubt that generative AI will have massive ramifications,” Adani wrote in his post, noting that generative AI carries the same ability and danger as silicon chips.

“Nearly five decades ago, the pioneering of chip design and large-scale chip production put the US ahead of the rest of the world and led to the rise of many partner countries and tech behemoths like Intel, Qualcomm, TSMC, etc.,” Adani wrote.

“It also paved the way for precision and guided weapons used in modern warfare with more chips mounted than ever before. The race in the field of generative AI will quickly get as “complex and as entangled as the ongoing silicon chip war,” he added.
