“The View” host Sunny Hostin is a proud ChatGPT user, particularly when it comes to communication in her marriage. And on Thursday morning, Kara Swisher made fun of her for it.
As part of the day’s Hot Topics, the ABC hosts discussed the recent influx in celebrities — namely celebrity women — encouraging the use of AI, like Demi Moore, Reese Witherspoon, and more. Hostin joked that she has a “PhD in ChatGPT at this point,” and noted that she regularly uses the program as her therapist, as well as her marital counselor.
“Please don’t do that,” Swisher, who is filling in for Joy Behar this week, immediately cut in.
Hostin further explained that she uses ChatGPT so that her emails and text messages to her husband “are nicer,” prompting Swisher to double down.
“Do you not have a friend we could do that with?” she retorted.
That said, Swisher was quick to admit that she defended Witherspoon’s comments about the need for women especially to learn AI basics. But, she added that the conversation about AI needs to also address the dangers of it.
“You can be right, at the same time as not talk about the safety issues,” she said. “So you look like a creature of these incredibly wealthy people. And so, what the real problem is, and when you’re saying that, you should also say there’s all these safeguard issues.”
“They didn’t mention that,” Swisher added. “They didn’t mention the data centers, and the damage. The climate damage, and the effective money by all these billionaires, who get in the room with Trump. He’s got an advisory council, by the way. There’s not a critic on it, there’s not an academic, there’s not — I think there’s one woman on it.”
“The View” airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET on ABC.
