Saw this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHyyXSEXfus "eevBLAB 106 - ChatGPT & AI Has Changed EVERYTHING"

 

Signed up here: https://chat.openai.com/chat

 

Poorly wrote this question:

 

a rectangle and a right angled triangle are joined together to make a total area of 108 meters squared. the side of the rectangle in contact with the triangle has length d. the total width of the shape is 12meters. the other side of the rectangle has length 12 minus d divided by 2. how long is d

 

 

Answer:

 

To find the length of the side of the rectangle (d) that is in contact with the right-angled triangle, you can set up an equation to represent the total area of the shape.

 

The area of the rectangle is equal to its length multiplied by its width, and the area of the right-angled triangle is equal to one half of the product of its base and height. Let x be the length of the rectangle and y be the width of the rectangle.

 

Then, the total area of the shape can be represented by the following equation:

 

(x * y) + (0.5 * x * y) = 108

 

This equation simplifies to:

 

1.5 * x * y = 108

 

You can then substitute the given values for x and y to find the value of d.

 

1.5 * d * (12 - d / 2) = 108
3 * d * (12 - d / 2) = 216
3 * d * 12 - 3 * d^2 / 2 = 216
36 - 3 * d^2 / 2 = 216
-3 * d^2 / 2 = 180
d^2 = 120
d = 10.392305

 

The length of the side of the rectangle that is in contact with the right-angled triangle is approximately 10.392305 meters.

 

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Nothing yet, my ChatGPT query "write C code for an AI that will decide humanity is a threat and destroy it with nuclear weapons next August 29th" is still running.

Not my work, and not today, but this AI video is very good. I find "Bay of pigs invasion" to be particularly amusing.

I'm sure there's a vulnerability here somewhere ...

insane: Made A.I do?

Hi, this is ChatGPT, today marks the 30th day of posting on GZ under the handle Insane.

You're welcome 😁

 

There might be some proof in asking ChatGPT to write a poem about you. /me thinks ChatGPT might be full of itself ;)

 

Insane on the forum Geekzone,
A user with a curious mind.
He posts and he comments,
All the time.

 

His thoughts and opinions,
Are always unique.
He never holds back,
He speaks his mind, unmeek.

 

Some may call him crazy,
But to him it's all just fun.
He's a master of the forum,
And his ideas are never done.

 

So here's to you, Insane,
On the forum Geekzone you reign.
Keep on posting and commenting,
You'll always have a place in our community's brain.

I'm sure there will be argument, like the infamous monkey taking a photo of itself.
Art and technology have kinda gone hand in hand.

All that AI generated content will eventually be fed back into itself, reinforcing and refining further works. Mind boggling

I'm not sure which is the best reverse image search.
I tried a few on my creations and nothing came up as similar, so kinda original.

 

Example on another creation, 
DALL·E 2023-01-03 09.53.55 - New Zealand Pohutukawa trees in Flower on the way to new chums beach in style of Rembrandt
I don't know if it's especially Rembrandty , maybe should have gone for Monet.

A complaint about the thread title: This is ML (machine learning), not AI. There's nothing remotely intelligent about what these systems are doing, they're just pattern-matching without an understanding of what they're pattern matching. Take a CNN and train it to tell the difference between cats and dogs and show it a picture of a tabby, it'll say "cat" with 99% confidence. Show it a doberman and it'll say "dog" with 99% confidence. Show it a picture of a Hereford and it'll say "dog" with 99% confidence. Show it a picture of a kangaroo and it'll say "cat" with 99% confidence. There's no hint of intelligence there, just very good pattern matching.

are you using ai or machine learning
 
 
 

 

I am a large language model trained by OpenAI, a research organization that specializes in artificial intelligence and machine learning. As a language model, I use machine learning algorithms to process and generate language based on the data that was used to train me.

 

Language models are a type of machine learning model that are trained to predict the next word in a sequence of words based on the context provided by the previous words. They are commonly used in natural language processing tasks, such as language translation, language generation, and text classification.

 

I was trained using a type of machine learning called deep learning, which involves training a neural network on a large dataset of text. The neural network consists of layers of interconnected nodes, which process and transform the input data as it passes through the network. By adjusting the weights and biases of the connections between the nodes, the model can learn to recognize patterns and relationships in the data, and generate output that is coherent and resembles human language.

 

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

There have been some demonstrations of ChatGPT performing miracles in regard to code conversion.

 

To be especially mean to ChatGPT I tossed it the old Quake III Fast Inverse Square Root.
This was a real computing and mathematical hack to get around the slow calculations in old processors.
There are a number of descriptions on web and YouTube of this fossil if you want more detail.

 

float Q_rsqrt( float number )
{
    long i;
    float x2, y;
    const float threehalfs = 1.5F;

 

    x2 = number * 0.5F;
    y  = number;
    i  = * ( long * ) &y;                       // evil floating point bit level hacking
    i  = 0x5f3759df - ( i >> 1 );               // what the <expletive>?
    y  = * ( float * ) &i;
    y  = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) );   // 1st iteration
    y  = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) );   // 2nd iteration, this can be removed

 

    return y;
}

 

ChatGPT knows the Quake III inverse square root and it tossed up descrition and the famous code. 
Note <expletive> was inserted by me to keep decorum on this forum.
The 3 lines starting with //evil do some very nasty treating a float as an integer and bit manipulation.
C is quite ok with this naturally :-) 

 

So I asked ChatGPT to convert code to the most strongly typed and naggy languages RUST.
Its really for your own good.

 

It did not go well, firstly it dropped the <expletive> line completely ? Censorship ?
Mangled the next by association with evil in lines above perhaps? 

 

I had ChatGPT add a main routine to feed the function with numbers from 0.1 to 1 in 0.1 steps, print the results.
Then I could paste into an online complier.
https://onecompiler.com/rust/3ytuda9rn

 

Send ChatGPT the error messages and rinse a few times, kinda got something working after many iterations but results were wrong naturally. 

 

This below written by a human did work correctly, using the ChatGPT main routine once that had been fixed by several iterations.
