Hullo, it’s Alex in London. Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of ChatGPT. But first...Three things you need to know today:• Cyber Monday [View in browser]( [Bloomberg]( Hullo, it’s Alex in London. Tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of ChatGPT. But first... Three things you need to know today: • Cyber Monday [sales hit $12.4 billion]( • Amazon released a [chatbot for cloud clients]( • UK said finance workers will [see an AI impact]( Childproof AI My kids — I have twins — had just turned 1 when OpenAI Inc. released the ChatGPT beta on Nov. 30, 2022. Now, the chatbot that kicked off the hype cycle around generative artificial intelligence is about to reach its own first birthday, and it spurs a thought that is in equal measures exciting and daunting: My children will never know a world without AI. This is the natural way of things. There’s a generation that never knew a world without Google or the internet or calculators. Net net, each of those things made the world considerably better. The recent [tribulations]( at OpenAI suggest that there are plenty of people well versed in the technology who are concerned that AI might have catastrophic implications. But — and this statement may well come back to haunt me — I’m at least slightly reassured by the brouhaha. It demonstrated that there are people inside that particular tent who are thinking about the ramifications of their technology. And mostly, they’re optimistic about it. A year in, we have a clearer sense of AI’s capabilities, even if it’s hard to compute fully the scope of its potential. To put that in some context, a Google AI researcher [recently posted]( an excerpt from a paper on LinkedIn that outlined how his employer defines levels of artificial general intelligence — an AI that can outperform humans at most intellectual tasks. At level five, it can “outperform 100% of humans.” ChatGPT and its peers, such as Google’s Bard, fall into level one: “equal to or somewhat better than an unskilled human.” There’s a lot of runway left in this space. My two are, almost by definition, unskilled humans. I’m left wondering how to ensure they become skilled ones. The kerfuffle at OpenAI over the future of humanity neatly brushed over the more immediate concerns: what today’s little humans will do in the future and how AI will impact jobs, particularly for knowledge workers (like me). With the possible exception of mathematics — chatbots are, famously, very bad at arithmetic at the moment — it’s hard to find a school subject that won’t face massive disruption. Plumbers and electricians look like the safest careers right now. Houman Harouni, a lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, put together some [guidance]( for teachers. His exhortation to “Teach students how to ask the ChatGPT tool questions” seems wise. That’s a skill my kids will need to learn at some point and, most probably, the rest of us will need too. If AI is, as so many claim, going to augment our jobs rather than replace them, we do still need to learn how to make that happen. My father-in-law is a pertinent role model. He’s an academic with a particular expertise in protein folding, the first field that AI, in the form of Google DeepMind’s AlphaFold, came for in a comprehensive way. But his life’s work hasn’t been rendered redundant. If he’d had access to the tool several decades ago, it might well have made parts of his work easier. AlphaFold predicts the shape and structure of a given protein, but his research examined how they then interact with their environment. His career has been all about asking the right questions. If my kids can do the same, then I’ll be happy. And maybe that question turns out to be, “Should I train to be a plumber?” —[Alex Webb](mailto:awebb25@bloomberg.net) The big story Tesla’s Cybertruck is proving to be a [production nightmare](, with the delivery date a day away.
