When AI systems like ChatGPT refer to themselves, do you believe they should use "I" or a different term like "it" to eliminate any emotional or intellectual implications that may lead to confusion or deception? Are we getting too comfortable with not distinguishing between text from a person and text from "it"?

The use of "I" for self reference is appropriate and any other pronoun would create confusion. When others refer to ChatGPT they appropriately use "it" and that's also clear. If the AI used its name in all self reference that would be clear but I don't think it adds clarity or value.
