When ChatGPT made its public debut on Nov. 30, 2022, I waited with bated breath and trained caution for the tool to evolve. The hype of AI reminded me of the early days of Snapchat technology when users were led to believe that sent pictures would magically disappear after just a few seconds. Less than one month later, we discovered all of those “deleted” pictures were stored in a hidden file called “.nomedia.”

I expected a fallout with AI, too.
