It was probably inevitable that when AI hoovered up the world’s knowledge and learned to talk like a human being, people would use it to seek out personal guidance. It’s an enticing concept—AI is always available and generally costs less than a human—but the drawbacks are obvious. Large language models are prone to inaccuracies and outright hallucinations. There are privacy issues associated with sharing one’s secrets and woes with a big company. The wisdom dispensed by AI is not crisply sourced, and almost all of it is ripped from creators who never see a dime in compensation. Plus, it’s downright dystopian for human beings to be advised by robots.
