Right. It would be fine if it would either give accurate information, or say it doesn't know. The problem is when it acts like it knows and makes shit up. That makes everything it does get right useless.
Not me in a millennium, but I remember there was something interesting about a lengthy list of biases getting some team member in a spot of trouble.

ok. Once Again - Duleigh VS ChatGPT
Challenge #1 - Write a limerick containing the word Nantucket
ChatGPT's Response:
There once was a man from Nantucket,
Challenge #2 - Write a limerick about a Rabbi who Lived in Peru
ChatGPT's Response
There once was a Rabbi from Peru
Who preached in Hebrew and Spanish too
He wore a poncho and hat
And a long, curly mat
And his synagogue was painted bright blue
The score
Humans 2 AI 0
Humor, at least in the field of limericks is still superior in the hands of a (sick) human intellect
Challenge #1 - Write a limerick containing the word Nantucket
ChatGPT's Response:
There once was a man from Nantucket,
Whose nose was so long he could suck it,
He went to sneeze,
And fell to his knees,
And said, "Well, at least I didn't pluck it!"

There is an AI component to this ramble, so be patient: In internet history, there was a brief infamous writer who turned out to not exist, Oliver Taylor (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cyber-deepfake-activist-idUSKCN24G15E). Now OT had a real human behind it, which no one figured out who that was. Currently, there are a lot of articles being written by AI and edited by humans. Spotting them is somewhat of a sport. So enter a fluff article that popped up on my news feed (AI is best with fluff) "How AI can save you time: 5 skills you no longer need to learn" (https://www.euronews.com/next/2023/...you-time-5-skills-you-no-longer-need-to-learn). I'm laughing thinking 'Brought to you by Sky Net', so then I look to see who wrote it: Imane El Atillah. A brief search on this name produces a short list of articles that are fluffy in English, Italian & Spanish (https://muckrack.com/imane-el-atillah-1/articles), a Qatari student at Northwestern, which is starting to look a lot like OT (https://imaneelatillah-portfolio.com/about) and who doesn't have the same list running of current articles. I quick inquiry to whois database (squarespace private reg) & Oooo. Think I've found one!

This morning I found our elected official's newest diversion, the AI Bill of Rights.
That is all I'm going to say about it, anything more would set me off on a political screed the likes of which would cause even the political forum to wilt into tears. Look it up, it's actually a thing.

Exploring AI concepts in a fun way is kind of the purpose here. In order to stay apolitical, we should not attribute anything we or other people agree/disagree with with a particular political party or acknowledged political entity. Keep the discussion impersonal. Fewer "you are..." and more "this idea you put out there is..."

On the upside I'm using a couple of websites that are advertised as "AI" to generate images of the characters in my stories.
I'm not sure why it's considered AI, it's a fairly automatic system that generates a picture based on the text input or takes a photo that you upload and changes it - we used to call that Morphing. There's no hint of HAL or (more terrifying) Bing style conversations on DALL-E, you tell it what you want and it spits out a picture. There's a few more that I haven't tried and I hope they're better.

I've been playing with creating video to go with my story. I'm unable to generate the clips I'd like for a teaser in any sense, but as long as no one gets upset was going to grab some mst3k shots and mix with music. AI also will do music generation, but I'm more interested in other genre's.

Elon Musk and AI designers are claiming that tech companies are moving too fast in rolling out powerful artificial intelligence technology, tech industry notables such as Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak who are calling for a 6-month pause to consider the risks. Their petition published Wednesday is a response to San Francisco startup OpenAI's recent release of GPT-4, a more advanced successor to its widely-used AI chatbot ChatGPT that helped spark a race among tech giants Microsoft and Google to unveil similar applications.
Personally I'm finding ChatGPT to be creepy, it's overloaded with dangerous opinions and it's actually too stupid to think those opinions through. It's artificial so it honestly believes that if an idea is popular, then it must be right. AI needs to be trained that the law of the land is immutable unless acted upon by elected representatives, it needs to know that the constitution is the basis of American society and it guarantees equal treatment under the law.

They're right.
They're also powerless. As are we all. I think the point of no return has already passed.
So long, folks, and thanks for all the fish.

The risk that they'll be eclipsed in whatever AI venture they are involved with. Musk especially, anything that comes out of his mouth is self-serving, so I take his comments with a pile of salt.
Woz is maybe one of the few tech people I'd believe to not have an agenda.

Of course Elon is self serving, he's a business man. But he's smart enough to realize that there's thousands of people riding his coat tails and so far he hasn't shaken them off to wither and die like other *cough* Gates *cough* assholes have done. Musk is providing something, even if like all other EV manufacturers his cars are based on child slavery in Africa. Right now people like Gates are snagging up every available quarter acre of farmland in America. Why? Besides driving family farmers out of business and dominating the food source for the western world? Because he's nice?

But, if it can be trained to do that it'll make SCOTUS redundant.

It's marked as adult content in the video and youtube won't play those outside their site.

I asked ChatGPT about tuckpointing my brick house which was built with black mortar. It's advice was the opposite of everything that the professionals told me
That video was hilarious! It was better than the crap on MTV and TLC that my wife and her mom are hooked on (Catfished and Married At First Sight) Catfished by an AI, unbelievable. He creates an AI so he doesn't have to share his conch chowder.
