(CNN) — Unas horas después de que Snapchat lanzara su chatbot My AI para todos los usuarios la semana pasada, Lyndsi Lee, una madre de East Prairie, Missouri, le dijo a su hija de 13 años que se mantuviera alejada de esa función.“Es una solución temporal hasta que sepa más sobre ella y pueda establecer algunos límites y directrices saludables”, dijo Lee, que trabaja en una empresa de software. Le preocupa la manera en que My AI se presenta a usuarios jóvenes como su hija en Snapchat.La función se basa en la herramienta viral de chatbot de inteligencia artificial ChatGPT y, al igual que esta, puede ofrecer recomendaciones, responder preguntas y conversar con los usuarios. Pero la versión de Snapchat tiene algunas diferencias clave: los usuarios pueden personalizar el nombre del chatbot, diseñarle un avatar Bitmoji personalizado e introducirlo en conversaciones con amigos.A medida que cae la población de Japón, una ciudad está recurriendo a ChatGPT para ayudar a admi...
