I was thinking about this. You take something like ChatGPT, point it at all your company's documentation, and boom, instant customer service. Pretty darn good customer service based on my experience. Feels like it will instantly invalidate all existing customer service chatbots once this propagates.

What about it confidently just making plausible sounding but false things up? That doesn't make for good customer service...

They're very aware of that. I expect GPT-4 will improve on it, especially given the rumours about it being a big improvement over GPT-3/chatGPT.

Assuming, of course, good documentation, which is probably the hard part.

Just point it at your code to generate documentation (not now, but that’s the endgame)

The endgame is point it at docs to generate code... Ask your manager.

is any company doing this or something similar right now? I really don't think it works this way, but I'd love to see an example of how I'm wrong.
