I’ve been having a back and forth with the AI in chat for the last half hour about a robber I knew from Drimnagh when I was back in school. It’s now gone off to find out more info and he’ll contact me back when he finds something. Bizarre.

    You think it’s the AI, but it’s actually one of your usual FBI contacts having a bit of a giggle.

      Cheers, Hugo. Great craic altogether.

      People are using ChatGPT to write letters of appeal now and getting positive results!

      What a tool this is, slightly scary and one of those things whereby it’s going to be difficult to stop the widespread use. Businesses and institutions will have to jump in or be left behind

        I’m in the process of applying for a new role, and the entire recruitment pack was written by chat gpt. You’d never know either, the whole pack appears as normal as if it’s human written. Very cool but scary as well. The recruiter told me the client just needs them to sort out the interviews etc and isn’t needed for the paperwork….so their fee is reduced

        Completely agree. I had ChatGPT take a cognitive ability test that I would have asked a job applicant to complete. Passed with flying colours. If a worker could use ChatGPT to do the tricky stuff in their job, then it’s the test that is no longer fit for purpose. Businesses urgently need to figure out how to leverage the technology, rather than misplaced attempts to ban its use.

          Anyone know why ChatGPT sign-up is currently unavailable?

          I was going to use it to write a lengthy ‘Into the weeds’ Hugo rebuttal of my claim about kebabs and omelettes in the food thread.

            Elon probably had it closed down because he’s worried about AI. The fucking wanker.

            Hursty Yes, but I can set my VPN server to almost anywhere and that is usually the first thing I try.

                Do you follow Brian Roemmele, Hursty? If not give him a look, what he posts daily is very interesting in terms of the development. Its equal parts amazing and terrifying.

                  LT42 I’ll check him out, cheers for the tip

                    It this ever gets to the point where it can realistically match my level of message board BANTS then I will be astonished.
