Dr. Lance B. Eliot is a world-renowned expert on Artificial Intelligence (AI) with over 8.1+ million amassed views of his AI columns and been featured on CBS 60 Minutes. As a CIO/CTO seasoned executive and high-tech entrepreneur, he combines practical industry experience with deep academic research.
In today’s column, I explore the human-to-human psychological phenomenon known as mirroring and reveal that modern-day generative AI can also partake in mirroring behavior s too. This is part of my ongoing Forbes.com column coverage on the ways in which AI can impact human cognition and mental health . Similar to how human-to-human interaction can occur bidirectionally when it comes to mirroring, the same can happen between a human and a robot.
You might know that ChatGPT is the widely popular generative AI app by AI maker OpenAI. The number of people using ChatGPT is impressive and estimated at around 200 million weekly active users. The examples I show here using ChatGPT can readily be done in other generative AI apps such as Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini, Meta’s Llama, and many others.
I bring up this content fluency consideration because people often fall into a mental trap of thinking that generative AI knows all. It is an easy trick to have happen to you. You use generative AI, and it answers your questions. All seems good. After a while, you are lulled into thinking the AI knows all.Always make sure to double-check whatever response you get from generative AI.
To me, I think a word-for-word echo is nothing more than a raw form of parroting and not what seems to be in the spirit of mirroring.“Great! What would you like to know more about?” Notice that ChatGPT was able to ascertain various elements of my writing style, along with making conjecture about my way of thinking.
