Do not treat AI chat as just a toy: it may be a rehearsal for the next interaction revolution

In the past, customizing a virtual persona required finding a development team, writing code, and tuning parameters. What about now? The presenter wanted to make a harsh investor character named “Jason”. He did not even bother writing the persona himself. He simply threw the requirements to another general AI model, which instantly generated the character’s backstory, catchphrases, and personality flaws. Then he fed that copy into a chat platform, added a cloned voice, and in less than the time it takes to eat a meal, a nitpicking, sharp-tongued, realistic-sounding virtual investor was born. When you tell it your startup idea, it asks back in an infuriatingly arrogant tone: “How is this different from Uber?”

This “AI generating AI” productivity loop is what technology leaders should be most alert to. The cost of producing content is approaching zero.
