Ask HN: Does Godwin's Law apply to ChatGPT?

2 points

What happens to forums, comments, and all sorts of other interactions online if chat bots start responding everywhere to everyone, including each other and themselves?

A texting app I had would suggest replies to many of my texts as a shortcut button above the keyboard. So I texted myself a generic "starter" text from another phone and just went back and forth only using the suggested responses.

Back before caller-id a funny prank was to call two numbers at the same time and conference them in. And then listen on the speaker phone. (and record it of course)

Will AI be this funny or entertaining when it argues with itself online?

Will Godwin's law[1] apply to ChatGPT bots arguing against eachother?
