Andrew Garfield says he stopped using ChatGPT after playing OpenAI chief executive Sam Altman in Artificial. Geo News reports that Garfield told Variety the experience left him uneasy about AI and distrustful of those urging its adoption, because they may not fully understand what it can do.
Why it mattersGarfield said he had used ChatGPT for research before the film changed his view. It is an actor’s personal reaction, not a technical assessment, but it puts a recognisable face on a question that follows AI beyond the screen: how much confidence should the public place in the people promoting it?
Discuss: Should public figures’ personal decisions to avoid AI carry weight in the debate, or should we judge the technology by evidence about how it works?
