Our MacVoices Live! conversation about ChatGPT and Bing continues as Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Web Bixby, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, and Eric Bolden examine how and why ChatGPT, with and without Bing, is being used, how accurate it is, and what to know before you depend on it. The panel then discusses the ups and downs of Mastodon, why which instance you decide to join makes a difference, and identifies some characteristics you might want to consider. (Part 2)
