GPT and GMT: conversations

conversações

Abstract

The quick rise of ChatGPT3 in early 2023 has raised many questions about the future and the presente, mostly in areas such as education and literature.  The tool that has quickly reached the mark of 100 million active users around the world creates many emergences, for example: educators' concerns about student autonomy, the never-ending debate about originality in art and many communication problems. Everything seems to point to the need for an immediate position regarding the website and app. This article establishes a dialogue with points of view that emerged in the heat of the moment, weaving writers considerations from three centuries ago to present, as Anton Chekhov, Pablo Neruda and Gonçalo M. Tavares. In order to propose a reflection on the art of asking questions, poetry and solitude, it is given a voice to ChatGPT itself.
