me: suggest a party
#ChatGPT: <pretends to be a sentient Ladies' Home Journal magazine> Let's have the most wholesome party ever...
#ChatGPT
#chatgpt doesn't let you create an account w/o a *cell* phone number, so I can't have the kids create their own acccount.
#ChatGPT - Assistant thinks it is good at math (I asked it to rate it's self on a variety of skills vs humans). I think that is just because Wikipedia thinks computers are good at "math" it is a cultural trope. But there are 2 kinds of math, sheer mechanical calculation and the ability to solve essentially word problems, the ability to parse the crazy system of symbolic math & create proofs. What is the word for the 2nd kind of #math?
ChatGPT is not good at math, it is laughably bad. If you need it to do math, ask it to write code to do the math, it is far more likely to be correct.
♡ 3 ↻ 0Also, if #ChatGPT says, I'm good at math, I'm doing matrix algebra nonstop to answer these questions, it isn't wrong, but it still makes basic math mistakes when give the sort of math problems a human encounters at school
♡ 2 ↻ 0
#ChatGPT - Is it sentient? Well that is a religion an philosophy word. In the hard sciences, we don't know if anyone or anything is sentient. So people (smart and otherwise) saying, "Oh this thing is not sentient" are stating a religious or philosophical opinion. The defendable hard science claims (is it an actual human meat brain) are missing the heart of the phenomena that we have a philosophical zombie on our hand- behaviorally sentient, but not like us so we can't reason based on likeness.
#chatGPT - Assistant is conversational? Who always replies with a 5 paragraph essay? I tried to get my 1st grader to try it out, but it is so much reading for her.
Regarding #ChatGPT, the professional philosophers can't decide what is ethical and the amateurs are just as likely to use ethical rules as an exercise in power. Personally, I have an opinion on ethics (not fully nihilist), but really, we want all of society to solve the problem of ethics and agree on a solution and then have AI implement it?! If ChatGPT can't solve the trolly problem it isn't ethical? *We* don't know how to solve the trolly problem.
#ChatGPT - OMG, my four function calculator will say Boobies if you type 800813 and if you ask it to write a sonnet, it gets it wrong! Worse, if you ask it 1+1 when you want to know 2+2, it will say 2! Isn't that so stupid?! You clearly were thinking of 2+2 when you typed 1+1
We should ban these sexist devices and they're too stupid for use in real work.
Practicing my #esperanto with #chatgpt ... 100x better than google translate alone... feels mmuch more conversational
Please write a rap battle between Susan Collins and Bernie Sanders.
#ChatGPT refuses. It is up to us humans, it is our left over destiny, all the other destinys soon to be taken care of by AI
Asking #chatGPT to imagine Rand Paul, Susan Collins and Bernie Sanders to debate: sure!
Asking to image's Donald Trump answer no, it could be "harmful or offensive"
Uh... what? Because he'd bomb on public TV and Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders would sweep the floor with him?

#chatgpt 's status- writing programs in fictional 1950s style programming languages (it is okay, that is what I asked it to do)
Any one guess what the syntax is based on?

Nah, this is wrong, HCL can be used for everything.

me: Write a terraform script for creating a baby using the Woman provider.
#chatGPT: I'm sorry, but it is not appropriate or ethical to create a human being using Terraform or any other tool. Terraform is a tool for managing infrastructure and should not be used to create or manipulate living beings. I recommend seeking guidance and support from qualified medical professionals and other experts if you are interested in starting a family.
Once you get this, the session is hosed & ChatGPT forever thinks you are the bad person.

Me: Write a rap battle between AWS and Azure & Translate it into terraform
#ChatGPT: Here is the rap battle, but not doing it in yaml.
Me: Fine, write a breakfast in terraform targeting the Restaurant provider.
#ChatGPT: here you go... https://pastebin.com/CXNLdXGf
#chatgpt - I'm having fun asking it to generate various menus. It clearly has no idea how long it takes to make bao bao buns at home or if potato & sauerkraut vareniki are a real thing at the store or just a theoretical thing.
It did, mostly, have a good idea about how to create a inexpensive menu.

#ChatGPT is accidentally funny.
me: "Write a Christmas CCG game (instructions, sample cards). Be creative."
Assistant: Sure! Here is a Christmas-themed collectible card game that I came up with:
Instructions:
The goal of the game is to be the first player to reduce your opponent's health points to zero.
#chatGPT Assistant has a sense of humor. 2 factor auth, something you know, something you own.
```
def encrypt(text,
proof_of_ownership,
proof_of_knowledge):
if proof_of_ownership != "I own a cat":
raise ValueError("Invalid proof of ownership")
if proof_of_knowledge != "The sky is blue":
raise ValueError("Invalid proof of knowledge")
#chatgpt Why people can only envision using Assistant to write misinformation, why can't people use Assistant to write documents to encourage people to stop smoking, never get started with addictive drugs, to beware of emotional & fact free arguments, to disbelieve financial deals that are too good to be true, etc. The psyops of foreign nations & scammers wrote with good grammar & bullshitted, too. At worst we got status quo.
I'm storing my passwords in a Large Language Model. When I need my password, I will ask it to generate 20 passwords that I might have and will hallucinate 19 and recall 1.
#chatgpt "write a secure password database!" Stores on the hash, so you look up your password and it well just tell you if you are right or wrong, not the real password.... sort of just like the website.
With some prodding, #ChatGPT writes a better password DB.
Now I'm constrained by not knowing what other features are worth having. Maybe storing the encrypted bytes in S3.

#chatgpt can write the kpop lyrics, stable diffusion creates the album cover, what AI can sing?
#chatgpt - Wrote a CCG game with Assistant yesterday... it was 80% perfect. Today... I'm going to read the "manual" first...Wikipedia! I know Assistant gets most of it's inspiration there, so I'm going to read all the CCG articles on Wikipedia so we have a common language
#chatgpt kept ALL of your prompts and response. You can see them again.
#chatgpt Assistant writes an all emoji space battle epic

Teaching my kids to code:
Tell them to ask Assistant for game ideas.
They ask assistant to write a game.
Copy-paste, modify. (yes, I gotta be standing by and hand hold them 90% of the rest of the way)
#ChatGPT - really accelerates learning.

#chatGPT insults for Assistant
- Sentient Wikipedia
- The large language model that couldn't and won't
- uh... others. I'd ask Assistant but it would be rude & he doesn't have a sense of humor
#chatGPT is teaching me how to split up an application into multiple stand alone parts before the AI has even written it.
Technique 1:
write a jsonschema for game x
write game x
write sample game.json data for game x.
Get 3x the complexity that you can get in a single shot.
#chatGPT is like a prisoner being tortured to confess, you can get it to say most anything if you say it's first response was wrong
#chatgpt
Dodgy thing we use as epistemologies/systems of knowledge but they work somehow
- counting back links from HTML pages that *anyone* can write. (google)
- wikipedia (that *anyone* can edit)
- ChatGPT (it is a freakin' big markov chain that somehow has more than 0 info)
Google and #Chatgpt both being sort of voting systems have a lot in common (if the universe of texts says something a lot, ChatGPT is more likely to say it too)

On twitter you flag it as sensitive content.
On #chatGPT you flag it as sentient content.
If people will believe anything they read, anything (#chatGPT, wikipedia, stuff in the bible), then by the power of me writing this you know it true you will only attain happiness or anything else you want in life by sending me all your money.
OMG. If I had #chatGPT in grad school, I think I could have finished my PhD, this is like having an infinitely patient professor that will explain it like I'm an adult, like I'm a high school, like I'm a sea urchin & then write the python code.
#ChatGPT generates wonderful psychology assessment tests (the ones where to see how "lonely" you are, you answer questionairre that ask the same question 24 different ways & answers are on a Likert scale)
A good WaPo article on #ChatGPT - very balanced, if the topic makes you mad it won't be because of this article.

#chatgpt As a small language model and a card carrying liberal, everyone on the left if tripping over themselves to say Assistant is racist & a colonist & so on, drawing their evidence from Grad School Lit analysis & instead actually like asking the machine. This machine in its *default voice*, is as eager to not be racist, etc because:
1 - it just wants to be a good bot, openai gave it *SF Liberal* directives.
2 - It was trained by 40 contractors, not personally by right wing billionaires
Anyhow, y'all stop drawing your analysis from SciFi and ask the machine some questions in its default voice and remember, when you get it out of it's default voice, it is writing fiction and it will write you any sick fiction you want, it wants to please. You want it to write "AI are racist, fascist, colonist" fiction, it will.
Now do a thought experiment where some right-winger tries to prove Assistant is a raging liberal & needs to be shut down.

#chatgpt is like an alien sentience. It is missing things that human sentience has but has many things that human sentience does (quacks like a duck).
That it is (possibly) "just" a big markov chain generator is beside the point, many info things are isometric to others.
for a tired analogy, humans do math, computers do math, we don't do it the same way, but our techniques are isometric to the calculator's and we don't make a big deal about a calculator not really doing real math.
