Intro To The Spewing of Soul-Less AI

ChatGPT (and other such AI programs) have demonstrated their willingness to generate content on any topic whether it is gibberish or not.

Recently I had it generate a talk for the upcoming BugCon (no such convention) covering the topic of firefly light emission being altered by the relative gravitational increase during a full moon (no such phenomenon — as far as I know).

The ChatGPT AI engine was more than happy to create the talk. Basically operating as a soul-less text spewing machine. Thing that is not unique to AI. Humans are equally happy to be text spewing machines. Continue reading →

Exploring AI in the Brain

Chat Bots, Cognitive neuroscience

ChatGPT: Welcome to our blog on the topic of AI components within the human brain. As cognitive neuroscientists, we believe that the brain is composed of several separable and independent systems that operate in parallel. One of these systems, known as the AI-like system, is responsible for a variety of cognitive processes such as decision making, planning, problem solving and learning. In this blog, we will explore the nature of these separable systems within the brain and specifically focus on the AI-like system, discussing its key features and how it compares to other separable systems in the brain. We will also touch on the concept of parallel distributed processing, and how it helps in understanding the complexity and diversity of cognitive processes. Join us as we delve deeper into the fascinating world of cognitive neuroscience and the possibility of AI within the human brain. Continue reading →

ChatGPT Writes a Poem

Bloggish, Chat Bots

Well, ChatGPT seems to have fared better at a poem than the utter flop it made of the attempt as a joke. Sorry, not sure what the proper pronouns are for ChatGPT.

Me to ChatGPT: What are your pronouns?

ChatGPT: I am an artificial intelligence and do not have a gender or pronouns. You can refer to me as “it” if you would like. Is there anything else I can help with?

Okay, on with the poem… Continue reading →

ChatGPT Tries To Make A Joke

Bloggish, Chat Bots

This did not go so well. However, in fairness to ChatGPT this punchline is one that many comedians have failed to resolve.

Me:
Tell a joke with the punch line “Hot or cold he’s out of here in the morning.”

ChatGPT:
Sure! Here’s a joke with that punchline:
Why did the polar bear break up with his girlfriend?
Hot or cold, he’s out of here in the morning!

Me:
Thanks, but that is a riddle. I was hoping for more of a funny story type of joke.

ChatGPT:
I’m sorry if my previous response didn’t meet your expectations. Here’s a different joke with the punchline you requested:

A man checked into a hotel and asked for a room with a good view. The receptionist gave him a room on the top floor with a beautiful view of the surrounding area.

The next morning, the man checked out and asked the receptionist, “How much do I owe you?”

The receptionist replied, “The room was $100 per night and you stayed one night, so the total comes to $100.”

The man said, “But I was only here for one night. I checked in yesterday morning and checked out this morning.”

The receptionist replied, “Yes, that’s correct. The room is $100 per night.”

The man argued, “But I was only here for a few hours. I should only have to pay for a few hours.”

The receptionist said, “I’m sorry, but our policy is that the room is $100 per night, regardless of how long you stay. Hot or cold, you’re out of here in the morning.”
