I ran a little experiment yesterday. In an OP (the Inflation one) and on this thread Thread 195553, I copied and pasted exclusively from ChatGPT. Aside from one "good point" windowdressing on that thread, everything I posted on that thread was word-for-word from ChatGPT. I used the command:

respond to "[post I was responding to]"

and then just copied and pasted the response

You can also access the same tool here in a simpler interface:

It's pretty impressive stuff. If you're not looking out for it, it's pretty hard to distinguish it from human interaction. It's a touch stilted and of course its dialogue is milquetoast for a debates board.

But how long is it before this sort of tool will be writing articles and code for us, and maybe even movie scripts?

That thing is just repeating stuff it reads from the internet. It's been programmed to be politically correct which is understandable because you don't want to offend anyone with new technology that you want everyone to embrace and use. I've read some of the responses from the AI and it's blatantly obvious.

In my opinion it should have only been given the English language vocabulary and nothing else.
Like the self learning chess computer that was only given the rules of chess and it self taught itself to an unbeatable level of strength.

As for right now it's probably just going to improve automated responses so companies can use it for customer support instead of hiring staff.

We already have bots operating on this forum. They call themselves conservatives, and their programming is very simple even if short on logic.

The post seemed stilted; I thought you were just regurgitating standard right wing talking points.

Yeah, I didn't pursue that thread, but the responses on the Biden claim thread I thought were interesting.

I especially thought that the "It sounds like you have already made up your mind about Biden's comments, so I won't try to change that." line was a nice touch and impressive for AI.

It will just get stronger and stronger, that's the thing. This is version 1.0. Within a couple of years, I imagine it will be able to write movie scripts.

Combine it with DALL-E and deepfakes and before you know it, you might be able to create a movie on demand with all your favorite actors in minutes.

I'd make new original Star Trek series episodes.

People praising automation and AI but then they complain about being fired because they were replaced by a machine.

UBI will happen.

"Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not an electrically dynamized air-circulating apparatus!"
Command: "write a script for a star trek episode where Jim can't find milk for his coffee"

Answer:

[Scene: The bridge of the USS Enterprise. Captain Kirk and his crew are in the middle of a long mission in a remote sector of space. There is a tense atmosphere in the room as everyone awaits their next orders.]

Kirk: Alright everyone, let's get this show on the road. Status report.

Spock: All systems are normal, Captain.

Kirk: Very well. Set a course for the nearest starbase.

[The ship lurches forward as it accelerates away from the planet.]

Kirk: Scotty, how long till we reach the starbase?

Scotty: About four hours, sir.

Kirk: Alright, let's make the best of it.

[Suddenly, an alarm begins blaring]

Kirk: What is it?

Scotty: We're detecting a distress signal, sir.

Kirk: On screen.

[The viewscreen activates, revealing a small, battered vessel. It is clearly in need of assistance.]

Kirk: Hail them.

[The viewscreen flickers to life, revealing a group of alien refugees.]

Alien: Help us! Please, we are in desperate need of supplies.

Kirk: What do you need?

Alien: Food, water, medical supplies. Anything you can spare.

Kirk: Alright, we'll see what we can do. Spock, you have the bridge.

[Kirk, McCoy and the away team beam over to the refugee ship. After a brief exchange, the crew returns with the supplies, but there is a problem.]

McCoy: Jim, I think you should take a look at this.

[Kirk walks over and sees what McCoy is pointing at. A large container labeled "milk".]

Kirk: What's this?

McCoy: It's milk. These refugees had it stored here, but it's all gone bad.

Kirk: Damn. That was the last thing I needed for my coffee.

[The crew laughs at the absurdity of the situation.]

Kirk: Well, I guess I'll have to make do without it. Set course for the nearest starbase.

[The ship accelerates away, leaving the refugees behind.]

[Fade to black]

Interesting. Though Kirk says "alright" a couple times too often.

The strangest thing is that if you play with it for a while, you'll see the thing really does have a sense of humor.

I did think it was strange you were recommending cutting taxes and increasing government spending.
