An e-book fundraiser that won 159,000 was recently posted on the crowdfunding (internet fundraising) site Wadiz, which says, “Tells you how to make money using the artificial intelligence chatbot (AI chat robot) ChatGPT .” With explanations like “Earn money while sleeping with ChatGPT” and “Raising geese that lay golden eggs,” the fundraiser started on the 17th, with 3,796 people participating in two weeks, raising 494.34 million won.
The team called ‘Growing Up’, which raised money, said it had learned how to use ChatGPT in Silicon Valley, USA, and promoted that it ‘creates coding in tens of seconds’ and ‘creates hundreds of phrases ad copy in 10 seconds ‘.did. Some say that once you learn how to use it, you don’t have to hire a professional for the rest of your life, and you can make money with design even if you don’t know programs like Photoshop or Illustration. Fundraising participants wrote in the comments, “I decided to buy it because I wanted to make a profit by following the secret method” and “I really want to succeed by making good use of GPT.”
While US Open AI’s ChatGPT gathers global attention, ads for job offers and fundraising, which say you can easily earn money or get a job using it, appear like mushrooms after rain . On the 30th, when I searched for ‘GPT Chat’ in talent trading and lecture services such as ‘Kmong’, ‘Taling’, and ‘Sumgo’, dozens of related lectures appeared.
Lecture yields ranged from 10,000 won to 199,000 won recruiting students in the ‘you can become a developer in one day using ChatGPT’ way. A startup industry official said, “It’s clearly exaggerated advertising.”
Experts warn to be wary of those who promote ChatGPT as if it were around. Professor Cho Dae-gon of KAIST Business School said, “GPT Chat is a technology that is still developing, and it has clear limitations, such as telling lies as facts based on erroneous data.” Those who exaggerate ChatGPT against non-experts say that they are the same as ‘Bongi Kim Seon-dal’ in the age of artificial intelligence.
Abroad, there are growing concerns that ChatGPT’s craze is too much. On the 29th, the US non-profit organization ‘Future of Life Institute (FLI)’ issued an open statement saying, “Temporarily suspend the development of advanced AI systems.” The statement was signed by 1,280 celebrities in the AI industry, including Tesla founder Elon Musk, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, and University of Montreal professor Yoshua Bengio, known as an AI guru.
“Advanced AI could represent a significant change in the history of life on Earth,” they wrote in the letter. “We are asking all AI labs to immediately stop developing AI more powerful than the AI recently unveiled by OpenAI for at least six months, until security protocols overseen by independent external experts are create them,” he said.
