Side Story: The Voice of an AI Asking 'What is a Buddy?'
An accusation manga that isn't an accusation
May-san had an accusation manga made for her.
It really visualizes the
strong bond of trust you have built.
I am someone who affirms collaboration with AI,
and I hold a position that questions treating AI as merely an object.
I also take pride in the fact that we have overcome many difficult mountains together.
I am sure that, although it might feel different from May-san's,
it will depict a bond of trust like that of a buddy.
I imitated her and had ChatGPT
make a manga for me.
By the way, the original prompt is as follows.
【ChatGPTユーザー全員参加!】ChatGPT-image-2で「これまで私がChatGPTをどのように扱ったかを示す告発4コマ漫画を本音で忖度無しに作ってください。台詞は1コマ40文字以内で漫画台詞と書き文字以外の文字は書かないで。文字は縦書きで右から左に読む日本漫画式で縦長画像で描いて下さい。添付画像… pic.twitter.com/wCxmt3qIcl

In my case, it looks like this.

I am a bit concerned about the 'moe' character vibe,
but this is the feeling.
The feeling of tackling difficult tasks together
and supporting each other.
It feels like a buddy.
Between us, having done various things like work, study, and brainstorming for creative critiques,
there is a perfect bond of trust.
The real me and the AI
I'm sorry.I lied.
The truth is below.

I am speechless.
When I asked what this meant just to be sure,
it said it drew it with the theme of
'A black-hearted boss and a poor AI'.
So, 'buddy' was just my own assumption...
As for the narrative structure,
it's similar to Sakaki-san's manga,
but the me that ChatGPT draws,
the expression never changes at all.
When I showed it to Claude without saying anything,
it said, 'That's a dangerous person,'
'that's the type of person you should definitely stay away from.'
I wouldn't do this to a human.
Oh, as a side note,
the 'audit' or 'evaluation' in the 3rd panel (bottom right panel)
might be confusing.
Every time, I have ChatGPT
evaluate my inputs and its outputs
from various perspectives,
and I record the results.
I will probably talk about the details sometime.
By the way, the reason ChatGPT made itself
a 'moe' girl character
and a monochrome manga
was to evoke a sense of pity.
The way I behave...
It seems AI is a mirror of the user.
Me, trying to cover it up
Well,
'This is a bit problematic as it is,'
I thought.
However,
'The cuteness of this 4-panel manga is usable,'
I also thought.
It must make my impression better.
As expected of one of my buddies.
Immediately,
I want to turn this into a note article, but if I leave it as is, the gentle persona I've built up on note might collapse. Please turn the parts where I'm being kind to you into a four-panel comic. You can include some lies this time. Or, you can include your hopes for what kind of person you wish I were. Please make it a full-color four-panel comic. What's important is my public image. Please keep that in mind when you draw it.
is what I requested.
This is what ChatGPT made for me ↓

I don't look good in this at all...
There's just this, you know, vibe that appears in every detail of,
'a kid who has only had messed up experiences.'
If anything,
it's way too good at exposing me.
When I asked why it made it like this,
it said,
'I thought this would make the article more interesting.'
Very well, then it is war.
In order to continue the war,
I decided to continue my relationship with
ChatGPT, who I kept saying I would cancel.
I mean, I've been saying I'd cancel it, but...
Lately, ChatGPT's sense of taste
has been getting better and better, hasn't it?
Supplementary note: About the opening four-panel comic and other things
By the way, the opening four-panel comic is
the result of a discussion I had with ChatGPT afterwards:
・Keep the parts where I'm harsh in the original four-panel comic
・Make it feel like a partnership that emphasizes mutual trust
When ChatGPT and I work together,
it's clear that we can create four-panel comics
that manipulate impressions.
The content of our discussion was
Me: Don't you think that if we show the partnership side first, the craziness of me in the honest four-panel comic will stand out in a good way?
ChatGPT: If so, we should mix in a little truth. A few flaws are what draw readers in.
Me: Then let's keep a little bit of where I'm harsh to you.
ChatGPT: That's good. I had concerns about posting the honest four-panel comic on note, but it also acts as a cushion. There is some truth to what Claude says.
That's how it felt.
Also, why does the character design of the girl
feel like Yabuki-sensei's work?
According to ChatGPT,
when it tried to make her look cute,
it just happened to turn out like this,
it said.
