I wouldn’t take what it returns as gospel (not at this point in time) however as a tool to point you in the right direction, it’s brilliant. One thing I asked it to do - probably saved me a good hour of pissing about in google
Also the bing version is search optimised and the next gen on from the freebie one
My only concern is that as it gets better will people will stop trying to think for themselves.
I think they will. At heart we’re lazy arsed fuckers mostly all out to do things the easiest way, even thinking and understanding things for ourselves.
I have an US friend Michael who is an AI Guru and lectures worldwide on the subject. He’s an MIT lecturer and I know him through my Classic Car hobby.
The “Chatbot” subject was raised in the car forum I moderate; asking technical questions etc. which returned some interesting results although not compete.
The guru’s info on Chatbot was this, “Actually my research since the turn of the century has been about raising a warning that such technology was closer than most suspected and that we had to use the opportunity to explore and mitigate its consequences. Few listened.”
Another friend followed up that comment by asking Chatbot about Michael’s prominent AI involvement. “ChatGPT denied my claim it was elitist when I tested it about its response to you. It seems to have not met you”
Michael replied, “Ha! Even more disturbing is that it knew nothing of me when I queried it about machine ethics— I all but coined that term! I think it knows I don’t approve of it.”
Aptiv are a big software house here.
400 fired last week, 400 more this week.
They specialize in Automated Cars Technology
And Apple pulled out that game this week
From my perspective it’s great. I’ll be honest. I’ve used search engines all my life to get answers to professional questions
In my defence, I’ve got over 10k rep on Stack Overflow for helping people out
It’s mainly a better search engine for me, and like all search engines, your success will depend on the questions you ask.
As a person with low vision it is particularly useful. I don’t have to scan teams of bollocks and it’s in dark mode all the time.
I also find it quite entertaining. I have thus far gotten very decent synopses of a UK Smokey and the Bandit & a story involving Nicola Sturgeon and her husband going around Scotland in a camper van, solving crimes.
