    Bold of him to assume that companies would not just publish the trash - and that people would not watch it anyway.

        100% correct. The IRC channel I hang out in has a bot utilizing ChatGPT and it does a summary of the most recent conversations when someone joins.

        Sometimes, it does a great job! It impresses me how well it’s able to summarize multiple ongoing conversations in a succinct way.

        …and often times, it gets shit quite wrong. Not the actual topics, those it’s good at – but it is outright terrible at correctly indicating who actually said what.

        Granted this is all to be expected – it’s an LLM, not really AI.

        They wouldn’t have AI produce the whole show like that, it’s like feeding it a context to create dialogue within set parameters.

      Yeah as if there already isn’t complete trash, presumably it will just be cheaper and easier to produce, so expect more ubiquitous and niche trash!
