The question was: "Please create a long description for a live show on YouTube involving Stephen Wolfram as a guest, in conversation with David Orban, talking about AI and AGI, and the recent excitement about ChatGPT. Add the best social media URLs for both at the end of the description". You can check the unedited reply on https://sl.bing.net/i49q8S0S4lw.
