    @bachophile like any good radiologist, it says that "clinical correlation is required."

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      What do you mean ‘never mind’?

      That’s the same answer I got.

      It may have demonstrated having (at least basic) mathematical skills, but it failed quite miserably at solving the riddle…

        A 3D printer is used to control a pen to "hand write" homework, using ChatGPT content as the input. Best comment? It's ok, the teacher is going to use OCR and ChatGPT to grade it!

            So for all its sophistication, it's really still failing the Turing test quite badly.

            I guess a year from now it won't be, but who knows?

            I was only joking

                Note that ChatGPT has the intelligence to know when to back off and apologize.

                      Of course there are manually programmed restrictions. ChatGPT's website tells you upfront there are certain topics that are off limits.

                      So what if ChatGPT and its maker OpenAI have ideological biases? They are non-governmental entities not obligated to respect your First Amendment rights.

                      Here's an idea: take GPT-3 and train it with only contemporary American Conservative-leaning data, program in some hard restrictions about topics that contemporary American Conservatives would rather not talk about, and you can make yourself a contemporary American Conservative-leaning chat bot. It's like Conservatopedia as a response to Wikipedia, but with AI!

                            You don’t need to be a professor, Aqua and I compared articles several months ago and identified the AI articles. But that’s today. Look at the growth
                            , look at the trends. AI can’t go backwards or even stay stagnant by the very definition.

                              I tried Chat GPT two weeks ago. If you use it with the right mindset, it can be very helpful and speed up your work. I was running into issues while trying to write an Excel macro. Normally I would do some Google searches to find the solution, but I tried Chat GPT and it provided the solution in under a minute.

                              We also had an experimental study running at an external lab to determine the dissociation constant of a chemical. We had doubts about the formulas they were using but didn’t have access to the guideline. Trying to find the answer with Google proved to be quite time consuming. Using Chat GPT, I was able to derive the formula relatively quickly. On the other hand, it also made some mistakes which could easily be missed if you’re not paying attention. I would not use any formulas it provides before having verified them.

                              I would personally also not use texts it writes, at least not without adapting them. Oh, and don’t ask it to provide references… they are all fake… it knows how a reference is structured and knows the journals and authors that are typically associated with a certain subject. But it constructs references in the same way it constructs all its other text: word by word… Artificial? Yes… Intelligent? Maybe not so much… 😄

                                IBM expects to pause hiring for non-customer facing roles. HR is cited as an example. The article mentions that such roles number around 26,000 and expects ~30% reduction in these roles, about ~8,000 jobs.

                                    The guild added that the studios have been “stonewalling” on issues such as the use of artificial intelligence in script production.
