It is difficult to say that most Knesset members have impressive rhetorical abilities and it is even more difficult to say that many speeches leave their mark on the nation. But if until now the blame was on the members of the Knesset themselves or the writers of their speeches, now it seems that there is another to blame.
“By working together and promoting dialogue and cooperation, by solving fundamental problems that create division, we can create a united and prosperous nation, where the citizen’s mind has a voice and is invested in our common future,” said this morning (Tuesday) Member of Knesset Sharan Hashakal (“the state camp” ) above the podium of the Knesset plenary. But her speech, which included three steps that she believes should be taken, to try and address the current division and polarization in the nation – did not come from a professional speech writer or parliamentary assistant.
The brain continued to speak for several minutes in front of the almost empty plenary, when at the end of the speech she suddenly said: “I did not write this speech, this speech was written by artificial intelligence. And it is interesting that that artificial intelligence has much more brains than the members of Knesset who are here in this house.”
In a conversation with Gigtime Member of Knesset Shekhel said that she was also exposed to the impressive developments in the world of AI, when she decided to turn to ChatGPT, OpenAI’s impressive chatbot: “I too, like many others in the world, was intrigued by artificial intelligence, and I decided to experiment with it and be impressed by it. Understand what This is about. I started asking her all sorts of questions about issues such as security, Judaism and Israel, and during the conversation I tried to ask questions about the rift in the nation and what is happening in the justice system. When I asked the artificial intelligence what creates the rift in the nation, what are the consequences of such a rift, what are its dangers And how the rift can be resolved, I received very in-depth answers,” she said. According to her, after this “conversation” she decided to ask ChatGPT to write a speech about the reasons for the division in Israel, the consequences, the dangers and the solution: “And this is what came out.”
