When the chat platform with artificial intelligence (AI) ChatGPT was born, talk regarding this new technology spread in society, beyond the technology sector. ChatGPT can compose poetry, literature, essays, articles, news… in Vietnamese, although it is still naive and has many errors in information.

Experts predict that AI will soon become smarter, bringing people more surprises. Since then, many people have questioned whether AI will cause writers, poets, journalists to “lose their jobs” and what content creators will have to do to maintain their identity in the industrial age. current technology?

Creative labor cannot be replaced

In the face of the risk that AI threatens the “lives” of writers, poet and critic Nguyen Phong Viet thinks that there is indeed a basis for that worry.

He tried ChatGPT and found it very interesting that this chatbot can write poetry, can create meaningful sentences, can chat with users logically and especially has the ability to learn very quickly. .

He thinks that for those who have not really good writing skills, can not create emotional, rich images, the influence of ChatGPT is very large.

Sharing the same view, Dr. Nguyen Thi Quy Phuong, General Director of QP Vietnam International Consulting Company analyzed tens of millions of users who are providing information for ChatGPT’s huge data warehouse, so the ability to extract The information and language usage of this application will continue to improve. However, human creativity does not only start from data, although rich information and profound socio-cultural understanding are mandatory conditions for writers.

“Creativity comes from sincere feelings, from the vibes of those who bring the ‘conscience of the times’ to the times and the human condition, from life experiences, from good intentions, from knowing eyes. see the beauty in this life… It’s a source of inspiration that can’t be programmed. If writers, journalists, content creators no longer have the ability to create from that inspiration, then ChatGPT will be a real threat to them,” said Dr. Nguyen Thi Quy Phuong.

Discussing this issue with a reporter of VietnamPlus Electronic Newspaper, linguist Do Anh Vu said that in fact, artificial intelligence demonstrating the development of science and technology, the later version is always superior to the previous version. However, this is still a machine made by man, so it cannot replace human creative labor.

According to Dr. Do Anh Vu, in order to produce a work, the author must have a personal experience, from which to create the words with the “shaking” of emotions, moving the reader’s heart.

“Creations with such a unique nature can only be done by humans and forever, no machine can replace them. I think writers and poets have nothing to worry regarding,” said Dr. Do Anh Vu.

Thus, most experts think that ChatGPT does not have a great influence on those who are seriously following the writing profession, because they create with their own hearts and minds. However, the fact that the development of technology also poses a challenge that authors must explore and explore more words, must be creative constantly.

Should turn AI into “assistants”

Poet Van Cong Hung, a member of the Vietnam Writers’ Association, said that the appearance of ChatGPT was as surprising as when the first computer appeared in Vietnam. He believes that we are living in a time when technology develops like a storm, so instead of being afraid, people need to adapt, learn and take advantage of machines to serve their lives. living. The poet thinks that ChatGPT itself is a machine, a tool, how to use it is a human right.

“Emotions are still human, can only be human. Computers are still computers and poetry is still poetry. The poet has not yet become a computer and the computer still needs the poet to use and control. Maybe, technology helps the voice ‘turn’ into words. Personally, I will also carefully study ChatGPT to see if it helps my work,” shared the poet.

Talking regarding the application of ChatGPT in life, poets Nguyen Phong Viet Rate this is great tool for reference. For example, when he is ordered to write a brand communication article or conduct a media campaign regarding something, he will refer to ChatGPT for a more diverse perspective.

“Before a media campaign, I ask what I will have to do, for whom, and how to deploy it. ChatGPT with a huge data warehouse will give me a lot of information, from which I will streamline to find the right content for my work,” said poet Nguyen Phong Viet.

Doctor Do Anh Vu Newspapers can use AI to quickly write news stories, such as weather reports, COVID-19 case summaries or sports updates. However, reporters-editors cannot completely trust the content that AI writes.

“After giving the AI ​​to write a piece of news, a flesh-and-blood human still has to re-read the entire text, check for accuracy, and then edit, supplement, and refine the ‘color’. ‘ more. Thus, AI can help us shorten working time, and achieve positive effects,” said Dr. Do Anh Vu.

Assessing the advantages of ChatGPT, Dr. Nguyen Thi Quy Phuong said that the huge data warehouse and fast processing speed are the advantages that make ChatGPT an effective “assistant” for those who need to process and synthesize. , analyze large amounts of information for the job.

ChatGPT makes choices according to common criteria, including criteria of accuracy, logic, and common sense. Therefore, ChatGPT responses can be a useful channel of information for verification.

Ms. Phuong believes that this feature makes ChatGPT quite safe when used in education as a reference source available for analysis and synthesis for learners as well as researchers. ChatGPT can also be a perfect secretary for regular text transactions like replying to a counterparty for simple, formal confirmations.

“Personally, I think a positive use of ChatGPT is to treat artificial intelligence as a challenge of human intelligence, to make each person more interested in exercising their brain every day: Read More , write more, ask yourself more questions. So that it’s my work or new discoveries regarding my surroundings that surprise me rather than ChatGPT’s essays, poems and seemingly human answers,” said Phuong.

It can be seen that the convenience of ChatGPT is leading to a number of risks such as misinformation, plagiarism, lack of creativity and personal identity. Therefore, experts make a common opinion that if you are always a creative person, always reinventing yourself, no artificial intelligence can replace it.
