I was casually asking ChatGPT what it knew about me when it told me I’d been on trial for money laundering. I don’t remember that time tine because it turns out there is another Matthew Brown who lives in the area.
The scary part was how ChatGPT pulled together my profiles from LinkedIN, YouTube, Instagram, Thanet Creative, and What Do They Know and strung them together with nothing more than my name (Matthew Brown) and county of origin (Kent). That, and it told me I was not a money launderer according to the law.
ChatGPT knew about Author Buzz and described my sense of humour as dry and sarcastic. It is not wrong but that was uncomfortable. Are we approaching the uncanny valley of AI?
AI “art”
I asked ChatGPT for an image of two of me. It claimed to have no reference photos and invited a prompt to make “an artistic representation”. I’m not sure if I believe it about not being able to find a photo of me. It knew enough to give the “me” a beard but that could be a coincidence.
Either way, enjoy this “artistic representation”. Feel free to play a game of what’s wrong with this image (there’s so much).
