An Interesting Set of Artifacts

I had an interaction with chatGPT that I thought was fun and interesting for three reasons:

1) There could be something novel about this, even if it's just the way it all hangs together.

2) If not, then it could be mundane but consistent output which is encouraging, with respect to previous interactions.

3) It could be wrong but then it is quite convincingly so, I have not yet checked the details.

Do you agree? Tell me what you think?

bediger4000•1mo ago
I think you should clearly mark this as "AI" generated.
d4rkn0d3z•1mo ago
Isn't that in the text above? Seems clear enough, no? I mean it wasn't like I asked how the day was going, there was significant prompting.
bediger4000•1mo ago
Why so defensive? Clearly I thought that it wasn't marked well, maybe put it in the title next time.
d4rkn0d3z•1mo ago
I thought the word "artifact" gave a clue, so much for subtlety. Is there a reflexivity to avoiding AI?
rerdavies•1mo ago
It does not.
d4rkn0d3z•1mo ago
Soon, very soon, there will be no way to discern the output of AI from that of a human, just as there is no way to determine whether I added two numbers by hand on paper manually, or I pushed the "+" on my calculator, given only their sum. Would you refuse to read an article if someone used a calculator to obtain results? What about numerical integrations? Would you refuse to read a book because a printing press made it? Perhaps books should have labels that say "WARNING this book was printed by a machine".

What if over the next few decades, science is creatively destroyed; no more science remains that isn't in some way produced using AI. I'm quite critical in using these tools but I'm not a Luddite.
