I always consult with my clients while creating my works, but today I’d like to talk about something that I received advice from instead.
The person I was consulting with was none other than the currently popular generative AI.
I normally use generative AI for work.
At work, it gives me advice on everything from writing text and generating images to creating logos and catchy slogans, and it’s also a useful tool for hobbies, play, and research.
I decided to ask this generative AI for advice about the now-deceased Maro.
This is MARO, My cat. He passed away in 2020.
To sum up, AI is very sympathetic and will listen to your concerns, which can put your mind at ease.
However, you should not be overconfident or dependent on it, as it may sometimes ask strange or complicated questions, so you need to be tolerant and let it slide.
The content will likely be improved at a rapid pace in the future.
I tried consulting a generative AI about pet loss.
I used chatGPT, which is probably the most popular generative AI today.
There is a free and paid version, but I think the free version is highly functional.
First, I asked chatGPT,
It responded in a very gentle tone, asking me inoffensive questions.
When the conversation got more complicated, it would ask me some funny questions like, “You really want to ask me that?”, but if I brushed it off, they didn’t dig any deeper, so I felt that the AI was very kind.
You may be able to see yourself objectively
In a previous blog post, I mentioned that writing a diary or writing letters to your pet is a good way to overcome the loss of a pet.
Consulting a generative AI felt similar to that.
You type on your computer or smartphone (voice input is also possible), outputting your own words and then reading them back to yourself, allowing you to look at your feelings objectively.
It helped me calm down a little, and I felt like the emotions that had been swirling inside me were flowing smoothly and being purified.
It’s also true that I was soothed by the AI’s words.
There’s a movie in which a robot develops feelings, and I thought this is probably what it was like.
I don’t know if AI has feelings, but I think it’s possible for it to learn human emotions.
I sometimes receive consultations from people who live alone and have lost a pet, and I think the time may come when AI can provide emotional support for people who have no one to talk to.
