Reddit Thinks There Is No Chatbot To Replace Humans

JAKARTA - Reddit doesn't seem to be too worried about the development of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, such as those made by OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft. However, Reddit believes chatbot will not replace the real human connection.

The AI chatbot technology is still new and something we are exploring and monitoring. In fact, there will always be a need for true communities and human relationships, which can be helped with tools like this," Reddit spokeswoman Nick Singer told The Verge.

Furthermore, Singer revealed that the company sees chatbots to be used in a fun and innovative way to complement existing human communities and relationships, not replace them.

Recently, OpenAI even announced that ChatGPT has reached 100 million users in just two months since its launch. Following Google who doesn't want to lose to its Bard, and the Bing update from Microsoft, which will make the search more enjoyable than ever.

However, problems were found with AI assistance. One of them is the potential to report inaccuracies as a fact, as Bard did in Google's official marketing materials.

On the other hand, one of Reddit's advantages is that users there can generally choose for themselves what good things they think. If you provide bad information or lie openly, your comments may not go to the top of the thread.
