Translation: machine translated

We explain what the chatbot ChatGPT is all about. What do big players like Microsoft and Google want with it and why are they afraid of it?

Programs equipped with artificial intelligence create images, imitate voices and can conduct dialogues almost like real people. The latter refers to ChatGPT. We explain how the chatbot works, why it is so extraordinary and what its limitations are. We also talk about Microsoft and Google, who also have their fingers in the pie.

We watched the murder mystery "Glass Onion", the Oscar nominee "The Banshees of Inisherin" and Tom Hank's "A man called Otto".

We played the zombie tower defence shooter "Gross". It was developed by a Swiss developer. We also solved murders in "The Case of the Golden Idol" and tried out the next-gen update of "The Witcher 3".
