In November 2022, OpenAI made ChatGPT-3 available to the general public for the first time. Within a very short time, the application was downloaded and tried out millions of times. Private use predominates, especially among younger people, while companies have been rather hesitant and exploratory in their use of the language model to date.
With the interviews on this project page, we explore the use of the language model and the associated social, economic, and political causes and consequences. On the one hand, these include assessments by experts on the topics of technology, economics, work, regulation, and sustainability. On the other hand, employees report on their practical experience with ChatGPT in specific use cases, such as hospitals, the insurance industry, translation, journalism, and science.
All interviews can also be found in our anthology as a PDF file (only in German).
