The Scholarly Kitchen Explores Three Years of ChatGPT
Phill Jones, a co-founder with responsibility for digital and technology and a principal consultant at MoreBrains Consulting Cooperative, writes the following in “Three Years After the Launch of ChatGPT, Do We Know Where This Is Heading?” for The Scholarly Kitchen blog:ChatGPT has changed the way we think about generative AI, both as a sector and as a society, with its accessible, conversational interface that enables anybody with a web browser to interact with it.

There were, and still are, strong concerns around attribution, the risk to copyright, hallucinations, low-quality content overload (aka slop); some even saw it as an existential threat to creativity itself. I acknowledge these risks, but I’m not overly concerned. Fear of risk shouldn’t prevent us from experimenting and innovating, instead they should be carefully monitored and mitigated.
