Bard AI (Artifical Intelligence)

@Enzyte Bob Have you tried ChatGPT?

To all robots out there - do not post on this forum.

@Enzyte Bob This is what chatgpt says about bard:

Bard AI on forums.

Dan

Are you familiar with Bard AI and how might it affect questions asked on online forums?

ChatGPT

As an AI language model, I am familiar with the concept of Bard AI, which is an artificial intelligence system that is designed to generate written content, such as essays or articles, in the style of Shakespeare. Bard AI is an interesting application of natural language generation technology, which can be used to create text that mimics the style and tone of famous writers or speakers.

In terms of how Bard AI might affect questions asked on online forums, it's possible that some users could employ the technology to generate questions that sound more eloquent or poetic. However, it's important to note that the content generated by Bard AI is not necessarily accurate or informative, and it may not always be appropriate for the context of a given discussion or forum.

Ultimately, the impact of Bard AI on online forums will depend on how users choose to use the technology, and whether they prioritize style over substance in their contributions. As always, it's important for users to critically evaluate the content they encounter online, and to seek out reliable sources of information whenever possible.

***************************************************************

With your suggestion I tried it, very interesting. I posed the same question as a friend posted about a question concerning amateur radio contesting and ChatGPT had almost the same technical answer.

There is another site called OpenAI which I have not tried.

If we can visit the earth in several hundred years we may not any humans alive but bots with AI far exceeding us carbon based former indigenous beings.

*******************************************************

I now asked ChatGPT about scams on dating sites

The answer said beware of:

(1) Cat Fishing

(2) Money Scams

(3) Identity Theft

(4) Romance Scams

HAL 9000 eat your heart out.

Cheers, Steve.

-@Enzyte Bob

At first I thought that cat fishing might have been an erroneous response but I looked it and it is s term from 2010 that involves fake identity (different from identity theft): "A catfish is someone who pretends to be someone else online to find friends, romantic partners or victims on the internet."

@Enzyte Bob Here is where I tricked it with an old joke but when it learns the correct response I notice it cannot be tricked again:

Dan:

A diesel train is traveling south at 30 miles per hour and the wind is blowing from the East at 15 miles per hour. Which direction is the smoke going?

ChatGPT

Since the wind is blowing from the East, and the train is traveling South, we can assume that the wind is perpendicular to the direction of the train. Therefore, the wind does not have a direct effect on the smoke coming out of the train's chimney.

The direction of the smoke coming out of the train's chimney will depend on the orientation of the train's engine. If the engine is facing south, then the smoke will be blown directly behind the train by the wind. If the engine is facing north, then the smoke will be blown in front of the train by the wind.

However, since the question does not specify the orientation of the train's engine, it is impossible to determine the direction of the smoke based solely on the given information.

Dan

But a diesel train has no smoke hahaha!

ChatGPT

You're absolutely right! I apologize for the error in my previous response. Diesel trains do not emit smoke from their chimneys, as they use diesel fuel instead of steam to power their engines. Therefore, the direction of the smoke is not applicable to this scenario. Thank you for pointing that out!

@danfinn

Enzyte Bob: With each passing minute ChatGPT it seems to wondering away from results that sound like a Google search.

Enzyte Bob to ChatGPT, I asked for a Danfinn poem.

ChatGPT replied:

As the sun sets on the sea,

And as the stars twinkle bright,

Danfinn sits on the shore,

Watching the waves in delight.

The wind whispers in his ear,

And the sea sings a song,

Danfinn listens with a smile,

Feeling alive and strong.

He's a man of the sea,

With a heart full of love,

For the oceans and its creatures

His devotion never subsides.

He dives in the deep blue,

With a fearless heart and soul,

Discovering the wonders,

That lie beneath the shoal.

Danfinn is a legend,

In the world of the sea,

A fearless adventurer,

Whose spirit runs wild and free.

So if you ever met him,

On the shores of the bay,

Listen to his tales,

And let your heart truly play.

@Enzyte Bob Hahaha and a big thanks to ChatGPT😂

We're in trouble!

Just finding that out now?

This is a new and different trouble. The other is obvious.

Does anyone know the power button on ChatGPT?

This is a very difficult discussion to have. in this forum there are members who are aware of super AI issues and others who haven't followed it. Some are aware of the open letter to request a pause on AI development beyond GPT4 signed by people like Elon Musk. Some never heard of the new release of very intelligent AIs. The most troubling analysis comes from a well known AI expert Eliezer Yudkowski. You can check his position on LexFridman youtube clips like https://time.com/6266923/ai-eliezer-yud … ot-enough/

In his case, "we" means all of human civilization.

What's so wrong with human civilization being phased out? (phased out not wiped out) It's just another step of evolution which humans were an integral part of. After all, the purpose of the existence of most humans is just to pass on their DNA, eventually to create the next phase. Like in a relay race were the runners pass on the baton to reach the finish line.

Do you remember anything before you were born? Will you remember anything after you die? So between birth and death is just a gap in time, nothing more.

Just think that AI it is life without a body. AI can spread itself throughout the Universe and not be shackled by time and distance. (time and distance won't exist) Just because we can walk and chew gum at the same time does mean humans were meant to be the end product of evolution.

It's even possible we don't exist at all and don't know it.

The search feature on this forum could use some

Artificial Intelligence,

In order to be useful.

Will the new AI's pay tax after they are brought into the world?

Cheers, Steve.

If you had 1,000 Monkeys type into a word processor for an infinite period of time all the works of great literature will have been written.

AI could do the same thing in short order.

A sobering analysis for sure (Lieutenant Spock would be proud of you Bob ) And of course you cannot uninvent technological breakthroughs which AI encompasses.

I remember seeing one of Bruce Willis’s better movies (always thought he could do with some AI) entitled 'Surrogates’ released in 2009 - ‘set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots’

Effectively your brain is ‘transplanted’ into an android double of yourself leaving you free to do whatever you like risk free. An intelligent humanoid film which was way ahead of its time and judging by recent events prophetic.

That would not be another step in natural evolution. If from the cloud it is smart enough to hack into military systems and calculate nuclear launch codes (oversimplified example), the destruction that would follow would not be evolution but in fact an intervention in the natural evolution process. This might for example, either by its own decision or directed by a notorious human by simple verbal command.

"Life" is for carbon based entities only. For example, we consider single cell organisms from protozoa to plants to chimpanzees to modern humans to have life. If a machine could be alive, then it must follow that each transistor to flip-flop to cell phone to computer to advanced AGI to be alive. If course it cannot be true because even though AGI seems to duplicate life by its self replication and other characteristics, none of the lower levels of the machine can do that.

I wonder what Sarah Connor will say about this.

I think I'll watch "The Terminator" tonight.

Yeh, I am that lucky that the extras will probably consist of tying my shoe laces and brushing the lint off my shirt.

@Cherryann01 Not only will it work for you but it will assume all of your duties and if you are lucky, you can get a job working for it 😂😂

Can I programme it to pay me what I want?

@Enzyte Bob I like this old joke that Elon Musk refered to in his twitter feed:

"Old joke about agnostic technologists building artificial super intelligence to find out if there’s a God.

They finally finish & ask the question.

AI replies: “There is now, mfs!!”

Lol. Please explain how that relates. Thanks.👍

No need to get worried just yet ... but maybe later.

Chat still makes far too many silly mistakes. It looks like the company is about to be sued for defamation by an aussie who it accused of being a criminal.

-@Fred

It was only a matter of time before someone would sue OpenAI for one thing or another. People are always watchful for reasons to  litigate their way to riches. The chat responses are not preprogrammed thus cannot be predicted but the owner of thr platform is held responsible. Lawsuits like this will likely cause OpenAI to remove the platform from the public space in the future and only permit limited private use by paid subscription. Too bad, really.

@Cherryann01 I saw the video on this by an NYU professor.  They actually agree to pause AI development for 6 months until standard and policies are in place.

-@LoneWolfNY

Yes, there was an open letter signed by professors, scientists and orher professionals involved in AI, including Elon Musk, calling for a 6 month pause in AI development, stopping at ChatGPT4. Other experts such as Eliezer Yudkowski think that is not enough and that ChatGPT4 has already gone too far. On that platform, he believes learning is so swift that it has gone out of control and much faster than developers can track as to what is happening inside with its neural links. As far as he is concerned, AI cloud data centers should be shut down, and, being like a true radical, proposes that data centers refusing to shut down should be neutralized by missile strikes in whichever country they are located. You or I can say this is way too extreme but understand that Yudkowski has been a renowned, mainstream expert in AI for several decades. He believes that, knowing a shutdown will never happen, mankind's prospects for its continued existence are bleak and that is what he advises youth i.e. there is nothing they can do to change that. He is sort of the malthusian economist or Paul Ehrlich of AI. Feel free to look him up and decide for yourself if he is correct; I myself am not qualified to make a judgement on the issue so I just hope for the best, that society will safely contain this technology as it did when nuclear fission technology first became availabke in the mid 20th century.
