Altman's ChatGPT parenting hack gets clapped back into the sun
Sam Altman hyped a 'cool use case' for ChatGPT: feed it your family calendars and kids' interests, and it'll generate a custom morning podcast for the school drive covering soccer games, birthdays and news. The internet was not moved. Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch's four word reply, 'what if you just talked to your children', out performed Altman's original post by a landslide in likes and reposts. It's the latest in Altman's ongoing campaign to convince parents AI belongs in the crib, even as OpenAI faces lawsuits over ChatGPT's role in users' mental health crises.
Nothing says 'I love my kids' like outsourcing their childhood to a chatbot with a parasocial podcast voice.
