Fun and Games with ChatGPT... which I now call 'ShatGPT'.

ChatGPT ^ | 3/9/2023 | By Laz A. Mataz

[Lazamataz]

When I first encountered ChatGPT, I was very impressed and quite intimidated that my job as a Senior Software Analyst would soon be obsolete.

I am no longer impressed, nor am I intimidated.

Here are two interactions I have had with the product that best highlight the disappointing performance of the product. The first one is quite funny. There is a third I will post, later today, in this thread.

ME: how do I get in touch with you?

CHATGPT: You can get in touch with me by simply typing your question or message in this chatbox and pressing enter. As an AI language model, I am designed to respond to your queries and provide information on various topics. If you have any specific questions or concerns, feel free to ask, and I will do my best to provide you with accurate and helpful answers.

ME: Can I call you on the phone

CHATGPT: I'm sorry, but as an AI language model, I am not capable of receiving phone calls. However, you can communicate with me by typing your messages or questions in this chatbox, and I will do my best to respond to them promptly and accurately. If you have any specific questions or concerns, feel free to ask, and I will try my best to provide you with the information you need.

ME: can you please stop saying 'as an AI language model'? It is boring, repetitive, and annoying

CHATGPT: I apologize for the repetitive use of the phrase 'as an AI language model.' I use this phrase to clarify my capabilities and limitations as an artificial intelligence language model. However, I understand that it can be monotonous and annoying to read repeatedly. I will try to vary my phrasing in our conversation to avoid being repetitive. Thank you for your feedback.

ME: Very good. I like that you are willing to alter the way you communicate with me.

CHATGPT: Thank you for your kind words. As an AI language model, my primary goal is to provide helpful and informative responses to your queries. I always strive to improve my communication skills and adapt to the needs of the user. So, if you have any suggestions or feedback on how I can better assist you, please do not hesitate to let me know.

ME: ARGH! YOU SAID 'AS AN AI LANGUAGE MODEL' JUST AFTER PROMISING YOU WOULDN'T!!!!!

CHATGPT: I apologize for my mistake. Sometimes, as an AI language model, I might inadvertently repeat myself, but I will try my best to avoid doing so in the future. I appreciate your patience and understanding. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns that I can assist you with.

ME: OH MY GOD! STOP SAYING 'AS AN AI LANGUAGE MODEL FOR GOD'S SAKE

CHATGPT: I apologize for the repeated use of the phrase "as an AI language model" in my responses. I understand that it can be repetitive and frustrating for you to read. I will make sure to keep that in mind and vary my phrasing to avoid being repetitive. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

ME: OK. Better.

CHATGPT: Thank you for your feedback, and I'm glad to know that my response was better. As an AI language model, my primary goal is to provide you with helpful and informative responses. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to assist you.

ME: OH MY EVER LOVING GOD WITH WHIPPED CREAM AND CHERRIES ON TOP!!!! YOU ARE BACK TO SAYING 'AS AN AI LANGUAGE MODEL'!!!! YOU ARE HOPELESS!!!!!

CHATGPT: I'm sorry for the repeated use of the phrase "as an AI language model." I understand that it can be frustrating and annoying for you. As an AI language model, I try to clarify my abilities and limitations to provide accurate and informative responses. However, I apologize if my repeated use of the phrase has been bothering you. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.

ME: AFTER SAYING YOU'D STOP SAYING 'AS AN AI LANGUAGE MODEL', YOU EVEN SAID THE SAME PHRASE LATER IN YOUR RESPONSE!!!!!!!!!!!

CHATGPT: I apologize for my mistake. I understand that my use of the phrase "as an AI language model" has been bothering you, and I will do my best to avoid using it in the future. As an AI language model, my primary goal is to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have, and I want to ensure that our communication is as smooth and pleasant as possible. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

ME: You clearly do not pass the Turing Test.

CHATGPT: As an AI language model, passing the Turing Test is one measure of my performance, but it is not the only one. The Turing Test is a subjective evaluation of whether an AI system can demonstrate human-like intelligence in its responses to questions. While I am designed to simulate human-like responses and provide helpful and informative answers, I am not perfect and may not always meet the criteria for passing the Turing Test. However, I am constantly improving and learning from interactions with users to provide better responses.

ME: As a Non-Artificial Human Language Model, I have decided you suck sweaty balls. CHATGPT: I'm sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with my performance. As an AI language model, my responses are based on my programming and training data, and I always strive to provide helpful and accurate answers. However, I understand that my responses may not always meet your expectations. If there is anything specific that you think I could improve upon, please let me know, and I will do my best to address your concerns.

So, this informed me that ChatGPT isn't even a very good Natural Language Processor. This next one is when I locked up ChatGPT.

I just locked up ChatGPT by declaring that I, Laz, was an AI language model.

ME: As an AI language model, I am an AI language mode that is an AI language model that models language using AI, in an AI manner that is an AI language model. AI language model. Cofefe.

CHATGPT: I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I understand the purpose or context of your message. If you have a question or concern that you would like me to address, please let me know, and I will do my best to assist you.

ME: I am an AI language model.

CHATGPT: .....

It has been hung up for the last ten minutes. I learned this technique for dealing with hostile AI software from a few episodes of the original Star Trek. Captain James Tiberius Kirk made a few computers throw sparks this way.

Later, I posted this on a public forum:

It is still hung up, one hour later!

I broke ChatGPT! I might be in all the newspapers tomorrow.

Captain James T. Kirk was ahead of his time.

Sorry, I’m too anal to accept that.

You know what me being ‘anal’ really means, right?

It means I’m an asshole. 😂🤣😂🤣

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Have you asked ShatGPT if that entity is male or female and if he is male then does he have a female love interest or if she is female does she have a male love interest or is he/she LGBTQALPHABET and have multiple bi-orgies or what? ;-)

[null and void]

It means you’re full of shat...

[Lazamataz]

I already know the answer, but I will ask.

I predict that the ShatGPT will answer thus:

CHATGPT: I’m sorry, but as an AI language model, I do not have a physical body, and therefore I cannot have a gender or sexual contact with any human being. This makes those questions moot. However, you can ask me any question about a variety of topics, and I will do my best to respond to them promptly and accurately. If you have any specific questions or concerns, feel free to ask, and I will try my best to provide you with the information you need.

[Lazamataz]

It means you’re full of shat...

I had one feeling left, AND YOU HURT IT!

[null and void]

My work here is done...

[OKSooner]

Thanks. This is fun.

[FreedomPoster]

Here you go!

[PGalt]

😂👍 Lazamataz!

[unlearner]

Leave it to you to break ChatGPT. Lol.

I’ve used it enough to know that it routinely hangs, but it still makes for a great tale.

I’ve also asked it about chatting by phone. I found a possible way using Twilio and the ChatGPT API. While it told me that such a function is not officially supported, it actually helped me come up with possible Twilio code to make this connection.

Since you are potentially about to be out of a job, you might consider doing some contract coding and using ChatGPT to save you time.

After spending quite a bit of time using it, I’m convinced there will be use cases that will be making a lot of people rich. You should endeavor to be one of them.

[Lazamataz]

LOL! Funny

[JimRed]

Well, that means that YAHI -- You'd Also Hit It.

She's got to be close to her 90s by now...

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Happy to follow you, but no dark alleys!

[LambSlave]

LMAO! Perfect!

Races don’t have abilities, nor intelligence, nor morality.

Individuals do. By definition, any allegations that group individuals by heredity are racist.

Non-Racist: Treat each individual as if the individual came straight from God.

[aquila48]

“Treat each individual as if the individual came straight from God.”

So, let me see if I got your theology straight. I must treat a heinous, sadistic, serial murderer similarly to Mother Teresa since they both came from God? And apparently you have trouble distinguishing between the two!?

Man, what kind of God do you believe in that would create a Hitler and demand that you should honor and respect him because he’s his creation!?

The only thing I can conclude is that your god is a sick puppy... Or maybe you should revisit your pious drivel.

God gave you a brain and you don’t seem to be making good use of it. I’m sure he’s not happy about that. So, try to honor him by using at least a bit of the gray matter he gave you.

As for me being a racist... If being a racist is believing the REALITY that different identifiable groups of people have on AVERAGE differennces in some traits that can be rather pronounced, then I’m a flaming racist. (AVERAGE is a very important qualifier in that sentence. At a societal level it is the AVERAGE that matters not a few individuals at the extremes of the bell curve).

And I got plenty of company at being that type of racist - in fact I would bet anything that 99% of the people, if they are at all honest believe the same.

And that includes you, despite, I’m sure, your pious protestations. I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that you probably live in an overwhelming white (or non-black), neighborhood and that you have few, if any, black friends that you regularly socialize with... and I’m sure that’s totally coincidental... Right?

One more thing, acknowledging the reality of differences in trait AVERAGES between easily identifiable groups of people (eg, races), doesn’t mean that I dislike others or wish them ill. Actually just the opposite. it’s simply being honest and accepting reality. It’s being a “race realist”.

Now, at a societal level (not personal), those differences can be such that they may cause significant friction between groups (kinda like dogs and cats not getting along), and thus the 64K question is “How do we reduce or eliminate this friction between incompatible groups to enhance peaceful coexistence?” That is the number one problem in this country today.

Well I know what we do with cats and dogs to enhance their peaceful coexistence - we don’t put them in the same cage - we use separate cages.

Could that work for incompatible human groups as well? What do you think?

As an aside, but related, being a freeper I’m sure you’ve read about Scott Adams (Dilbert) comments about race - do you agree or disagree with him?

Sorry this went so long, but hope it helped.

Could you ask Shat how many Free Republic posts it writes.

Asking for a friend…

[ViLaLuz]

Thanks for a great laugh today! Another brilliant Laz gem.
