Satire And The Singularity
Alexandra Petri’s Excerpts from a civics textbook I assume would be welcome in Florida.
(Thanks, as always, Glenn.)
The above was a joke — or, well, satire.
Not this. This is real:
Last fall, a guy used (free) ChatGPT to get D on one of his college exams . . .
. . . and made a bet it would take until 2029 before ChatGPT could score A‘s.
You know where this is headed.
Forget 2029.
Here we are a few months later and — yep — ChatGPT-4 ($20/month) got an A.
The singularity is near.
It will also let developers decide their AI’s style of tone and verbosity.
For example, GPT-4 can assume a Socratic style of conversation and respond to questions with questions. The previous iteration of the technology had a fixed tone and style.
Soon ChatGPT users will have the option to change the chatbot’s tone and style of responses, OpenAI said.
. . . GPT-4 can also help individuals calculate their taxes, a demonstration by Greg Brockman, OpenAI’s president, showed.
The demo showed it could take a photo of a hand-drawn mock-up for a simple website and create a real one. . . .
Quote of the Day
There is no dignity quite so impressive, and no independence quite so important, as living within your means.
