"I, Prime Minister": Danish Leader Delivers Speech Partly Written by AI
07:19 GMT 01.06.2023 (Updated: 07:34 GMT 01.06.2023) Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) have sparked a gold rush, with billions of dollars of investment, but has also caused dramatic concerns. Critics fear it could lay waste to entire industries and wreak havoc on the internet, churning out tons of information that is misleading or downright false.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has delivered a speech in parliament partly written by artificial intelligence tool ChatGPT in order to emphasize the groundbreaking aspects and risks presented by AI.
Amid her traditional speech in anticipation of the summer break, the head of the Danish government made a sensational acknowledgement.
"What I have just read here is not from me. Or any other human for that matter," Frederiksen suddenly said, explaining that ChatGPT acted as a co-author.
"Even if it didn’t always hit the nail on the head, both in terms of the details of the government's work program and punctuation... it is both fascinating and terrifying what it is capable of," Frederiksen noted.
To a layman, however, the part of Frederiksen's speech drafted by ChatGPT was virtually indistinguishable from that written by her speechwriters, as it included a comparable amount of political platitudes, such as "It has been an honor and a challenge to lead a broad government in the last parliamentary year" (a nod to the peculiar coalition between Frederiksen's
Social Democrats and their
historic archenemies the Liberals). It was also rife with common tropes such as "sustainable future," "combating climate change" and "ensuring a fairer and more inclusive society."
ChatGPT stepped into the limelight late last year, brandishing
mind-wobbling abilities to generate surprisingly convincing if not entirely correct opinion pieces, scientific papers, poems and conversations.
