One morning, freshly caffeinated from tea and rearing to go, I was caught off guard. I’ll never forget that moment. While doing research, I stumbled across a video of someone reviewing this thing called _ChatGPT_. He was chatting with an AI language model, but this seemed very different. He tried to \"stump\" it – and while he did succeed at that, it also far exceeded his (and my) expectations. I could see the awe and amazement on his face as he machine generated text that sounded like it was written by a human. The discernment between 'was this a machine or a person' was blurry at the least. It was impressive to see how far technology had come, but at the same time, it made me wonder about the implications of such advanced AI. **Could machines like ChatGPT replace human intelligence?** It was a question that lingered in my mind as I observed others using the technology.","Interested in what **ChatGPT could do** for your business?","Reach out to us today",{"chatgptimage.jpg":37},{"name":38,"type":39,"size":40,"path":38},"chatgptimage.jpg","image/jpeg",122396,"04-03-2023 15:09",{"category":43,"tag":45},[44],"Data",[46],"News","ryanb",[],"should-i-be-scared-of-chatgpt","default","user/pages/05.blog/should-i-be-scared-of-chatgpt",{"data":53,"media_files":71,"slug":64,"template":50,"path":112,"folder":113},{"title":54,"intro":55,"ctaformheading":56,"ctaformsendbuttontext":57,"date":58,"publish_date":58,"author":47,"taxonomy":59,"slug":64,"introimage":65,"titletag":69,"media_order":70},"The secret to save over 50% on mobile apps development year after year","When it comes to your business, you want a lot.
