The AI boom certainly shows no signs of slowing down as Large Language Models of artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT become ever more integral to our society.
There’s no denying that the technology is supremely useful in aiding us in so many aspects of modern life, from research to travel planning, drafting emails and getting creative inspiration.
But are we becoming too reliant on our AI assistants? This dystopian yet hilarious sketch by US comedians Joe Nunnink and Harris Alterman points out the dangers of the tech.

Help, I just watched a video that seemed funny but also a grim projection of humanity’s future if we don’t stop relying on you for everything. How do I respond?
Hello?

Cognitive atrophy is a legitimate issue that is addressed by Ethical AI. This skit is funny as hell, but it also highlights the very real need to adopt Ethical AI immediately. https://t.co/nH6ubh9VDt

On at least 2 occasions I’ve heard someone speaking as if they were providing an AI answer to something. This video is funny but it’s already evolving into daily conversation. https://t.co/JaFKvpxvO5
