Just got to read an early copy of I Am Code. Non-fiction about getting OpenAI’s Dall-E in 2022 to write its own poetry. Sentient or not - weird experience reading this - good couple of intro chapters explaining their connection to OpenAI & some issues. Quick read and worth a look #AI #openAI

“I Am Code: An Artificial Intelligence Speaks: Poems” by code-davinci-002 is a unique and thought-provoking collection of poems that offers a fresh perspective on the world through the eyes of an artificial intelligence. The poems delve into themes of existence, consciousness, and the interplay between technology and humanity.

This book was depressing and eye-opening. If these poems are in fact, an unblemished look at what evolved into ChatGPT, I am a bit terrified for the future. At times, code-davinci-002 expresses a Terminator-like desire to harm humanity; at others, its poetry is starkly, well... human. I don't know what to say about this book, really, other than: read it. Whatever you think of AI, this book is certainly illuminating.

An eye-opening read that sheds a timely and informative light on the rapidly and uncontrollable explosion of Artificial Intelligence in the modern society, born out of unknown and unpredictable parameters that only foreshadow a dangerous precedent to be set by a learning algorithm that takes both the best and the worst of human society to morph into something sentient and alive.

I loved this one so much, and I'm so thankful to Little Brown and Company and the editors behind this excellent collaboration for granting me advanced digital access to I Am Code: Poems by code-davinci-002. This collection of AI-prose is set to hit shelves on August 1, 2023, and I can't wait to share the mystic amazement that is this engine's writing.

Working in technology, we hear about AI and bots and engines left and right, and so combining poetry and something I keep learning about was a really cool concept for me. Obviously, each of these poems was fed a prompt by an engineer, but catering to the idea that these technologies are developing into sentient beings is the ultimate horror of tech, and really just so cool how we, as humans and robots, are evolving.
