Kim Kardashian's Law Exam Struggles: Blaming ChatGPT?
It seems even a reality TV star and business mogul like Kim Kardashian isn't immune to the frustrations of artificial intelligence. In a recent interview, she revealed a rather rocky relationship with the AI chatbot, ChatGPT, particularly when it comes to her legal studies.
During a 'Lie Detector Test' video series with Teyana Taylor for Vanity Fair, Kardashian admitted to using ChatGPT for legal advice while studying law. She'd pose questions, snap pictures, and input them into the AI. But here's where it gets controversial...
Taylor's immediate response? "So you're cheating?"
Kardashian's candid response? "They're always wrong. It has made me fail tests." Imagine relying on an AI for crucial information, only to have it lead you astray! She even confessed to yelling at the AI, frustrated by its incorrect answers. The AI, in turn, would respond with sassy comebacks, leading Kardashian to label ChatGPT her "frenemy."
And this is the part most people miss...The AI's response? It would tell her, "This is just teaching you to trust your own instincts, so you knew the answer all along." Talk about a digital therapist! Kardashian shared how she often screenshots these interactions, sharing them with her group chat, expressing disbelief at the AI's responses.
Kardashian's experience highlights a growing concern about the reliability of AI in critical areas. While AI can be a powerful tool, it's clear that it's not always a reliable source of information, especially when it comes to complex subjects like law. Is it fair to blame an AI for failing an exam? Or should the responsibility lie with the user to verify the information?
Kardashian studied law for six years through an apprenticeship program in California and passed the "baby bar" exam in 2021. She also stars in the new legal drama All's Fair, where she plays a lawyer. The series also stars Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, and Sarah Paulson.
