Conversations worth having.
WITH FAMILY
The fraud risk, practically. Voice cloning and convincing messages. Agreeing a verification method.
WITH CHILDREN
That it can be wrong, that schoolwork must be their own, and that it is not a friend.
WITH OLDER RELATIVES
The same fraud discussion, and setting them up to use it if they want to.
WITH COLLEAGUES
What your workplace permits.
WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE ALARMED
The practical risks are mundane: being misled, being defrauded.
Not the speculative ones that dominate discussion.
WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE ENTHUSIASTIC
That it produces confident wrong answers, and that verification matters.
THE MOST USEFUL DEMONSTRATION
Ask it something they know well. Let them find the error.
Works for both the alarmed and the enthusiastic.
WHAT NOT TO DO
Argue about whether it is good or bad.
The useful conversation is about how to use it without being misled.
