End Times 2022: The End of an Era


2023 is the year everybody in the blogging and marketing business will be replaced by AIs. Let's face it, those programs are already faster and more intelligent than us humans. We really enjoyed writing for you those last few years, but it's time to pass the torch. From now on all posts will be copy-pasted from ChatGPT, until an API has been developed to let it write and publish straight to the Wix Content Management System.


What about Athena, Zerbique and JW? you ask. How very kind of you. We'll be playing games. Time enough at last! 🥳 2023 is going to be great.


We know you had hoped to see us to go out more grumpy...


But here's what we really wanted to say.

Happy New Year. 🍾 🥂

I mean we're all in awe at the AI prowess because somehow we still look at them as dumb or 'lesser' systems. It's the same as when we marvel at a child writing a good essay, with complete sentences and sound arguments, even though it's basic and devoid of originality and panache. Or when we share videos of a cat playing a few piano strokes.


But we shouldn't consider AIs as lesser systems. ChatGPT is probably relying on loads of data that no human will ever be capable of processing in its entire life. It's got fed with tons of learning feedback, here again probably far more than any child/student/adult will ever receive. It consumes tons of resources (electricity, mostly)…

Nah, your Grumpy posts never got remotely as boring as this AI garbage.


I mean, if I want to hear the most commonplace statements on a given topic, I don't need an overly powerful algorithm. Sure, I'm impressed by the developers' talent and the robustness of their tool. But if it's to read the most trope-oriented prose one can possibly produce, to be served only a language that is as consensual as predictable, smoothed and formatted into the most widely shared expectations, I just don't see the point of wasting my time to go through it. We already had billions of people to produce lame and under-inspired texts, really.

Happy new trip around Sol! Indeed 2022 wasn't that grumpy at all. It that a good or bad sign for 2023?
