Andrew Garfield, who plays Sam Altman in Luca Guadagnino's new movie "Artificial," says he only ever used ChatGPT as "a fancy Google" and stopped after filming. "I got a bit scared. I felt a little mistrusting of the technology. The people encouraging us to use it don't exactly know its capacities themselves — that feels irresponsible." Observers quip that you can't artistically grasp the mania of this moment without understanding the magic that spawned it.
