She documented the experience in her book, ‘“I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything.’
“During her AI immersion, Stern got into a habit of talking to ChatGPT’s Voice Mode, which lets users speak to the AI chatbot and receive spoken responses. ‘I was talking to ChatGPT in the car almost daily,’ she tells CNBC Make It — and it’s a habit she’s kept even after her book was published.
