I'm late arriving to this issue!

ChatGPT is going to allow its software to participate in, and I quote, "erotica for verified adults".

This is fraught I think but also not a surprise in any way: plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

Sex and computers go way back. Why would AI be any different? But this is different of course in that it's interactive in a way that wasn't possible before. People are already having less sex than in the past. I can't see an AI "partner" helping much.

OpenAI just released a kit that enables users/developers to build AI agents. This is significant - it just keeps getting easier to build agents AND to build workflows with multiple agents. Up to now I've been playing with Zapier (which is terrific by the way) but the more the merrier! If you've ever wanted your own chat agent, now's the time…

I had a visiting professor in my class this week. He gave a lecture on AI and how to best determine possible use cases and then how to prioritize them. Great discussion as he provided a structure: a way to classify different types of use cases and to identify the type of AI required to solve the problem. When dealing with a fast moving and quickly changing environment, a little bit of structure can go a long way!
