What if I replaced myself with a chatbot?

Potential preview of coming attractions.

The entire reason I started blogging was to avoid repeating myself to people, so the prospect of uploading a corpus of hundreds of thousands of words I've written and hundreds of open source repositories I've created to build a Searls-flavored ChatGPT was immediately attractive.

Unfortunately, it still dishes takes I disagree with too often for me to turn it on publicly. Unclear whether this custom GPT feature represents a very thin candy shell with a lot of ego projection and wish-casting to make it seem more "real".


Got a taste for hot, fresh takes?
