Andrew Garfield Stopped Using ChatGPT as a ‘Fancy Google’ After Playing Sam Altman in ‘Artificial’: ‘I Got a Bit Scared’ and ‘Mistrusting of the Technology’

Andrew Garfield Stopped Using ChatGPT as a ‘Fancy Google’ After Playing Sam Altman in ‘Artificial’: ‘I Got a Bit Scared’ and ‘Mistrusting of the Technology’

Andrew Garfield was once one of ChatGPT’s 1.2 billion users.

Artificial review – Luca Guadagnino takes on OpenAI in muddled tech satire

Artificial review – Luca Guadagnino takes on OpenAI in muddled tech satire

‘Artificial’ Review: Luca Gaudagnino Has Made the Real Sequel to ‘The Social Network’ — a Brain-Spinning Tech-Geek Docudrama, Brilliantly Acted by Andrew Garfield and Yura Borisov

"Artificial" is a brilliant but playful docudrama, meticulously true to history, that focuses on the founders of OpenAI, notably its CEO Sam Altman (Andrew Garfield).
