A Practical Example: How To Use AI Technology in Content Creation

When I "interviewed" ChatGPT about some of the AI I've been testing, I decided to ask what it thought about me sharing some of our exchange in a comic strip; here's a condensed version of how that conversation went:

ME: Where do you get your research data?

CHATGPT: ...my responses are generated based on a mixture of licensed data, data created by human trainers, and publicly available data. I have not been directly trained on specific proprietary databases or have access to information such as paid journals, subscription sites, or the content behind paywalls... my responses may not always reflect the most current research or developments... consult primary sources and trusted research institutions for specific inquiries or the latest information.

ME: Would you say that makes you a bit of a slow machine learner?

CHATGPT: ...I am designed to process and generate human-like text based on patterns and information present in the training data I was trained on. While I can generate responses quickly, my learning process is not the same as that of a human being. I don't actively learn in real-time or adapt based on new information or experiences...

ME: So, AI integrated into content editors can't learn from the writer adding to and updating content?

CHATGPT: AI integrated into content editors can indeed learn from the writer adding and updating content, but the extent of that learning depends on the specific implementation and capabilities of the AI system...

ME: With AI-powered content editors, do they have to be connected to wifi to learn/work?

CHATGPT: AI-powered content editors typically do not require a constant connection to the internet or Wi-Fi to function. The core functionality of AI content editors is often built into the software or application itself, allowing it to perform tasks locally on the user's device. While an internet connection may be necessary for initial setup, updates, or accessing certain cloud-based features, the basic functionality of the AI content editor can often be used offline. This allows users to work and utilize the AI capabilities even when they don't have an internet connection available...

ME: Most AI-powered content editors are subscription-based and, thus, only offered online---not as standalone local software.

CHATGPT: You are correct that many AI-powered content editors are offered as online, cloud-based services rather than standalone local software. These online editors often operate on a subscription-based model, where users access the AI capabilities and editing features through a web interface or dedicated application. With these cloud-based content editors, an internet connection is typically required to access and utilize AI features. This is because the AI models and algorithms are hosted on servers in the cloud, and the user's input is sent to the server for processing and generating suggestions or feedback...

ME: I'm thinking about using some of our exchange in a comic strip I'm working on. What do you think about that?

CHATGPT: That sounds like an interesting and creative idea! Comic strips are a great medium for storytelling, humor, and visual expression... ensure that the comic strip respects any copyright or usage rights associated with the content. If the content is not public domain or doesn't fall under fair use, you may need to seek permission or consider creating original dialogue and scenarios inspired by our exchange rather than directly using it. Have fun with your comic strip project, and I hope it turns out to be an enjoyable and creative endeavor!
