I use both ChatGPT and Google Bard. Here is the question I asked Bard followed by its response. Following that, you’ll find ChatGPT’s response.  You’ll note that neither one actually gives one a firm answer:

Given a building with 16 floors and two elevators, which floors should the elevators wait on when not in use?

I keep reading people complaining that AI chat doesn’t do much for them. But for me, it often helps immensely. One or two well formed questions to ChatGPT can return a wealth of information that would take me a dozen or two Google queries to get, plus the ChatGPT response is formated, with bullet points, in one single, copyable response.

My rough notes with some time stamps are below the 50 minute long video. (I’d say skip the last 10 minutes.)

Note that the following set of queries are extensive. I’m doing this research because I plan to post a youtube video that can help some people improve success of receiving sufficient signal for their atomic clock to set itself.

I estimate a 10 second to fifteen minute reading time, depending on your level of geekness, and, erm, interest in the…[Read more]

A health question. When I sit down to poo, my eyes tear up, and sometimes I even feel capillary expansion in my nasal cavities. What is the physiological cause of this?

I have such a strong preference for human-made music that I cringe hearing even the slightest hint of autotune. I’d rather hear genuine human flaws.

That said, I can’t blame young listeners for enjoying the robotic or other artificial…[Read more]

Hi! AI is perfect for music and with such easy access from a AI in your home referred to as Alexa you can easily access music from around the world if you want too.

I got that impression, too, but then later realized that being able to interpret human language and then respond to it in kind is a huge leap of “intelligence”, in its own right. These are word and phrase association machines, which don’t even have to really…[Read more]
