Stupid ChatGPT, fire management and Volker Wissing's balance sheet: the reading recommendations of the week

2023-01-14T08:56:52.805Z


The text robot ChatGPT is not as smart as is often suggested. On many subjects, the program boils an ocean of trivia down into a puddle of platitudes.


Should such AI programs be completely banned in schools, for example, as was decided in New York City last week?

It is difficult to give a definitive answer to this question as it depends on the circumstances.

A ban on ChatGPT or similar technologies in schools could make sense if they are abused or compromise student privacy.

On the other hand, ChatGPT can be a useful tool for teachers to help students study and give them access to information they wouldn't otherwise have.

It is important that schools use technology in a responsible and student-safe way, and that students are educated on how to use these technologies.

Overall, the decision to deploy ChatGPT in schools should be carefully considered, considering the impact it will have on students, teachers, and the school community.

It's also important that schools and teachers follow the right safety measures and ethical rules to ensure technology is used safely and responsibly.

Bored to death

Are you bored to death just now too?

The last two paragraphs are answers from ChatGPT itself.

The AI ​​engineering is impressive, no doubt.

And it's important to stay alert.

Previous filters in the software, which are intended to prevent ChatGPT from generating hateful or racist texts, for example, still need improvement.

But anyone who spends a moment longer dealing with the program will soon realize that texts from this chatbot also contain a lot of hot air.

That's only natural.

ChatGPT recycles and condenses the content of the internet.

At its core, the program boils down an ocean full of trivialities to a puddle of platitudes on many topics.

It may be that future artificial intelligence will be better able to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Until then, I recommend staying calm when dealing with the technology – and a good dose of common sense.
