The US Congressman gave a speech in the House of Representatives chamber written by the ChatGPT chatbot

US Congressman Jake Auchincloss read a speech for the first time on the floor of the House of Representatives, which

composed not of living people, but of artificial intelligence.

What does it mean

The speech was generated by the ChatGPT chatbot.The congressman did not specifically write the speech himself or assign it to his staff to highlight the potential of AI and the need for additional investment in research and development. In this speech, he advocated for a bill to create a US-Israeli artificial intelligence center.

The congressman's team gave ChatGPT a taskwrite 100 words for a speech in the House of Representatives on the bill, presenting its text and a press release for it. The first results weren't perfect, so the team had to refine the clues several times.

The result was the following speech:

“I am one of the youngest parents in Congress.I know this technology will be part of my career for decades to come. And it can become a general purpose technology for my children, for the sector they have chosen to work in, it will be a key tool that they will need to use. I wanted to bring this to the attention of Congress so that we are discussing a purposeful AI policy now, and not being 10 years behind the times like many social media policymakers."
