OpenAI's ChatGPT technology has been all the rage in business media over the last couple of weeks.
An artificial intelligence program that could pass the Voight-Kampff test has captured the imagination of everyone from the Wall Street Journal to CNBC.
But CNBC's Jim Cramer had a warning for investors looking to get in on the hype: don't.
"If you buy the AI thesis right now you will lose money," Cramer said.
He advises investors "not to play this game" when it comes to artificial intelligence.
Cramer was defending himself from potential future attacks after he tweeted about the AI prospects for investors.
ChatGPT Spurs Interest in AI
Created by OpenAI, ChatGPT it was launched on Nov. 30 and is part of what is called generative AI. The name ChatGPT stands for "generative pretrained transformer."
For almost two months, millions of people around the world have tested this chatbot to see if the merits touted by its developers are real. Their conclusions, often posted on social networks, indicate that ChatGPT has the potential to disrupt many industries and professions.
Companies like software giant Microsoft (MSFT) and news platform Buzzfeed have recently announced that they are going to integrate the chatbot into their operations. Google (GOOGL) sees the robot as a real threat to its dominance of online search. The company recently brought back Larry Page and Sergey Brin, its two founders, to find appropriate answers to ChatGPT.
