The battle for AI supremacy is on. We've been talking to robots in our homes, cars and offices for a while now — Alexa and Siri could write scathing tell-alls about most of us — but over the last few months, the stakes have skyrocketed. Google and Microsoft are among the companies to recently announce their multibillion-dollar chatbots. It follows OpenAI's headline-grabbing ChatGPT that launched in November. These AI tools can run all sorts of tech, power search engines, and many can talk a lot like a human. But they sure don't absorb and dispense information like a human. The speed at which these chatbots can solve problems, write research papers, even make original art would put any prodigy to shame. The positive side is that it's like having a personal assistant. The possibilities are endless! The concerning side? The possibilities are ... endless.
