Hello Bill,

That would be the surface interpretation. My thoughts are more along the 
lines of what this means for these types of AI:s in a broader perspective.

Do the companies fear the consequences, do they fear political 
legislation, or what about the publics reaction if a future chatgpt would 
successfully manage to generate empathy?

Could we, in the long run, look at a repetition of history where our AI:s 
are tools today, slaves tomorrow, and fully embraced citizens with rights 
the day after tomorrow?

Best regards,
Daniel
