AI Gives Better Advice Than My Wife, Says Actor

Actor Jesse Eisenberg recently shared a surprising anecdote about using artificial intelligence to prepare for an appearance on the show 'Hot Ones.' He admitted to seeking advice from ChatGPT, finding its guidance to be exceptionally personal and even more human-like than comments from his wife.

Eisenberg detailed how the AI provided a structured, day-by-day plan for his preparation, which he found profoundly impactful. He contrasted this detailed approach with his wife's more straightforward, movie-promotion-focused encouragement.

During his 'Hot Ones' interview, Eisenberg was promoting his latest project, 'Minions and Monsters,' where he lends his voice to the character Dort. This appearance also coincided with the release of a trailer for a sequel to 'The Social Network,' titled 'The Social Reckoning,' reigniting discussions about his iconic role as Mark Zuckerberg.

Filmmaker Aaron Sorkin, who is writing and directing the sequel, had reportedly attempted to persuade Eisenberg to reprise his Zuckerberg portrayal. However, Eisenberg expressed a desire to distance himself from the character, citing discomfort with constant attention related to the role, including fan interactions.
