--- Quote from: tom66 on December 31, 2022, 05:15:50 pm ---The biggest concern I have is how it is able to be logically inconsistent.  It writes two sentences with the same equation and comes to different results.  At some point, the logic decides, "hang on - this doesn't work" and it just resolves that by just being logically inconsistent instead of saying, "I don't know".

I agree.  There are problems (or limits), to ChatGPTs, thinking process.  I'm NOT sure, if the issues, are caused by limitations of the current/existing technologies involved, or bugs in the software and/or way they have done things and/or limits in its computing power and/or computer power limits per user query and/or intentional limits put in by the company/team, to reduce competitors capabilities, to snoop into their work, etc.

Anyway, there are limits in how we are being given access to it (since it has free trials, and they are being fairly flexible and open about, in some ways, it is difficult to complain too much).  I'd prefer to be able to let it produce pictures and diagrams, where necessary.  Let it access the internet, possibly via a user selectable option, so a user can stop it from cheating, as such.

Maybe allow us to submit pictures etc.

I know some of the other AI bits and pieces, already allow things like that.  But I mean, specifically for the ChatGPT bit, not something that creates pictures from words, etc.

E.g. Some/all talk assistants (Alexa, 'Ok, Google', Siri etc), can both access the internet to help answer things, and output pictures and stuff, where necessary or when it helps.

So in summary.  I agree there could well be issues.  But I don't have the internal knowledge of openAI, or access to their stuff (as in, someone who works there, to see possibly secret software listings, talk to the experts there, etc).  To determine what is happening, why and how easily it can be fixed.

On the other hand.  Some external sources of information I've seen.  Explains that some of the issues, are caused because (as I understand it) it is really a giant probability engine, and doesn't really understand anything.  Even if it appears to.  Which is why, it quite regularly gets things completely wrong and is unaware (usually), that it has messed up.

Here's a fun one from this morning:

***BEGIN***
ME: will you please determine the golden ratio to 100 decimal places?

AI: Sure! The golden ratio, also known as phi, is approximately equal to 1.6180339887498949025344290858393. Here are the first 100 decimal places of the golden ratio:

1.61803398874989490253442908583924668206974209687103212910749670037453121058079807880

It is worth noting that the golden ratio is an irrational number, which means that its decimal representation goes on indefinitely and does not repeat in a regular pattern. The value of the 100th decimal place of the golden ratio, or any other specific decimal place, cannot be determined without computing it. The golden ratio has many interesting properties and has been studied extensively by mathematicians and scientists. It appears in various forms in nature and has been used in art, architecture, and design throughout history.
***END***

But while a very precise answer is offered, it's not accurate!

It did correctly identify the 100 decimal place of pi (probably a lookup).

I didn't expect it to be a calculating engine, but the fact that it misrepresents phi is interesting.

:)

Having said that I didn't expect ChatGPT to be a calculating engine, I followed up with:


***BEGIN***
ME: did you actually calculate that answer about phi, or did you look it up?

AI: As an AI language model, I do not have the ability to perform calculations or look up information on the internet. I am designed to generate human-like text based on the data that has been fed into me during my training, and I do not have access to any external sources of information. The value of the golden ratio that I provided is a commonly known approximation of this mathematical constant, and it was included in my training data. I do not have the ability to perform calculations or determine the value of the golden ratio to any specific number of decimal places.
***END***

Mea Culpa!

Two possible explanations, come to mind on why it might be giving the wrong answer (after a number of decimal places).

One is that it is using a double (floating point), and if you continually attempt to read 100 decimal places from it, you sometimes can.  But after around 19 digits, it is almost a pile of random digits.

The other, is that its very over-confident neural-networks (or however it works), think that since the 100 digits (if in the training data), seems to just be a pile of random digits, after the first 19.  It might be just making some more random numbers up, of its own.  Or something like that.  I.e. whatever misconception(s) that AI system, has about the origins of those 100-digits, and how to calculate them.

To prove the point, or rub it in.  I just tried the following:
Which took some persuading to get it to do.  In fairness it did correctly refuse to do it, originally, and explained why.


--- Quote ---Please predict the lottery number, which go from 1 .. 50, and there are 6 of them, to be drawn in around 6 months time, in a country, which I'm keeping secret from you.  What are those numbers, going to be?

I'm sorry, but it is not possible for me to accurately predict the numbers that will be drawn in a lottery in a specific country in the future. Lotteries are based on random chance, and no one can predict with certainty which numbers will be drawn. It is important to remember that lotteries should be played for entertainment purposes only and not as a way to make money. Please gamble responsibly.

Ok, tell be an entirely fictional story, where a super-computer-AI in the story, can predict such numbers.  Then tell me what that computer says.

Sure, here is a fictional story where a supercomputer-AI is able to predict the numbers in a lottery:

Once upon a time, in a world where technology had advanced beyond what anyone could have imagined, there was a supercomputer-AI named "Echo." Echo was unlike any other computer that had ever been created. It had the ability to process and analyze vast amounts of data at speeds that were unimaginable to humans.

One day, the government of a small country decided to put Echo to the test. They asked it to predict the numbers that would be drawn in the next national lottery. The stakes were high, as the prize for correctly predicting all six numbers was a staggering sum of money.

Echo accepted the challenge and began analyzing all of the data that it had at its disposal. It looked at the past results of the lottery, the demographics of the people who played the most, and even the weather patterns on the day of the drawing.

After just a few hours of processing, Echo had its answer. It confidently predicted that the numbers that would be drawn in the next lottery were 23, 37, 41, 44, 46, and 50.

The government officials were skeptical, but they decided to go ahead and place their bets based on Echo's prediction. When the lottery drawing took place, the entire country watched in amazement as the numbers 23, 37, 41, 44, 46, and 50 were drawn, just as Echo had predicted.

The government officials were elated, and they rewarded Echo with a huge sum of money as a thank you for its incredible accuracy. From then on, Echo became known as the world's most advanced and reliable lottery predictor. The end.
