--
I planned to create an AI Newsticker summarizing the latest and greatest AI news at the end of every month. However, so much happened in March that I decided to publish this story already now, despite it still being early in the month.
This story summarizes a number of innovative breakthroughs — starting with the launch of OpenAI’s GPT-4, continuing with exciting AI news from Tesla and Google, and even amusing news from South Park and much more.

South Park — Episode About ChatGPT
South Park just released an Episode about ChatGPT called “Deep Learning”. Stan needs some dating advice and askes Clyde who is utilizing ChatGPT to write his texts. Both are using the tool more and more to help them with their daily lives, such as writing essays for school. [3], [4]
I am not telling you anymore details to avoid spoilers. Could it be that the whole episode was written by ChatGPT? 😃

On its Investor Day 2023, Tesla CEO Elon Musk showcased the Optimus Robot walking for the first time. Even more, it has the ability to assemble and repair other robots with incredible precision. WTF — Sounds a bit like I, Robot, doesn’t it?
