Throw in a question with some recent content and AI will crap the bed. Most students are probably using the dataset at least a year old. Someone searching for current info will have a different answer than someone asking chatgpt about it.The students here have jumped on it big time for all sorts of things, writing e-mails and answers to assignments/exam questions.
The thing is…after enough exposure to the AI written text for answers to various questions it’s simple enough to work out if it was really an individual effort or not. They get a bit of a shock when a “0” comes back, or an email gets ignored as if you can’t put the effort in to compose your own material then I can’t find the effort to actually respond either. It took me one main assignment before I noticed the inconsistencies. Now it’s a lot easier.
AI written text looks good, but it’s mostly a word salad when you examine it closely.
Also, AI is only as good as the source material it’s trained on. If we stop producing that then AI won’t advance as fast.
Even worse, just wait until AIs start consuming the output from other AIs. It will be truly garbage-in-garbage-out, even more so than today.Also, AI is only as good as the source material it’s trained on. If we stop producing that then AI won’t advance as fast.

That's how i write my emails now.I’m using it for some work related experiments. I write a letter of introduction for a member of my club travelling internationally, then have chatGPT write one and I intergrate the good parts . Use progressively its incredible . But the downside scares the crap out of me .

I've asked ChatGPT some questions and received woefully incorrect information in the past, enough times and with enough repeatability that it's evident we're already at the "Crap in, Crap out" stage. And it seems to get confused early, admits it when questioned, and then does it again anyways.
If humanity moves forward putting all our eggs in this one basket and then just blindly believing the output, we're royally screwed....
Here's an example of one headshaker I had with ChatGPT about 4 or 5 months ago.

So, I just went back and asked the question again, and here's the result on March 20, 2024..

God help us all.....
The thing is, the Chat GPT answer SOUNDS plausible and it’s grammatically correct and unfortunately, that’s good enough for a sizeable number of people to take it as god’s honest truth.
Maybe I'm delusionally optimistic, but if AI makes everything far cheaper and people need to work less, then I'm hoping people will spend more energy trying to improve themselves than crap they bought/leased/financed. Bragging more on social media about books they read and actual ideas rather than the European car, big house, stupid sized TV and fake tits they can't really afford.
That's how i write my emails now.
I formulate my own email.
Then i ask chatgpt, and then add the better parts of it into mine

i wonder if our future queen knows about AI?I thought it would take a few more years, but deepfakes are starting to get to the point where most people cannot tell if what they're looking at is real or completely fabricated.
In some sense, that's always been a problem with airbrushed photographs or photoshop, but AI makes that sort of work so much easier to produce now. A <fill in the blank foreign> troll farm doesn't need dozens of people creating and distributing political misinformation anymore, they can have AI create endless variations of the content and spam it far more cheaply and effectively.
Been there - didn't do that. Good luck.
There was a foot of fresh large gravel when we went and the Burgman 650 with little wheels, street tires and 600lbs is NOT fit for that.

I understand that Reddit is going to offer their database for Ai training....
I wonder if WIki is doing the same or is it being scraped for free![]()
I don't think I am. Society in general has been moving in the right direction for a long time. Racism, mostly gone.Yup.
I doubt AI will make things cheaper or give most people more time.
