- Meet ChatTJB, the “AI” chatbot with no AI, no algorithm and no LLM. It’s just one guy and 10,000 volunteers typing back
Tucker Bryant created ChatTJB, a chatbot that operates through human volunteers rather than artificial intelligence or algorithms. The project, which satirizes AI dependence, has achieved unexpected popularity, fielding over 100,000 prompts and gathering a volunteer waitlist of roughly 1,000 people per day. This phenomenon turns the concept into a strange reversal of the AI boom's anxieties.
