Wondering if anybody here has tried it? I just subscribed so I could get the new GPT 4 model that came out. Apparently it scored 90th percentile in a variety of tests including the Bar exam, college entrance exams, etc. I suspect the world's going to become VERY different in a few years...

I mess around with chat gpt 3. Entertaining. Told it to tell me a story about the huskers beating Deion Sanders flashy team in the Playoff and it did a pretty good job of fulfilling that fantasy. Lol

Yes, it fascinates me and I use it a lot right now BUT I expect it to keep getting better rather rapidly.
 
I had a kid ask me today if I would be able to tell if he used it to answer a question about feudalism... I just asked does it spell everything correctly? If it does I know it wasn't you writing it
You could probably ask it to write it at a 10th grade level or whatever grade your student is in
 
The "advancements" in AI art, conversation and voice generation this past year have been.....scary.
Yep, and it's not going to slow down. Microsoft just yesterday released integration into all of their office apps. I'm already rethinking a lot of what my career goals were. Everything is going to have to be condensed and I'm probably going to have to take more risks than I otherwise would. I don't think there's going to be jobs at all in 10 years... The progress of AI is going to be as massive a change as civilization has ever seen.

7th but reads at a 3rd. That's way too much forward thinking for my batch. Had a kid smoking a weed vape in class yesterday. We aren't even allowed to search a bag or make a student go into a classroom.
TLO verses New Jersey says you can search a bag in school. Your school district should ask chat gpt to explain that case.

I tried OpenAI and found it to be really disappointing. The one exception is that you can ask it to write Python code and it will do it quickly. For general topics, every answer seemed like an unoriginal amalgam of Google search results. But I did ask it to write a haiku about flowers:

Blossoms in bloom,
Petals soft and fragile,
Nature's artful gift.
 
ChatGPT is great at summarizing things and writing first drafts of stuff so you don't have to start from scratch anymore. All you have to do is edit to your needs and fact check it. All this AI stuff is moving so fast is scary what to think it will be like in 5 years. What I'm most scared of is voice cloning. All they need to do to clone your voice now is call your cellphone. If it goes to voicemail and you have a greeting with your voice, that's all the time they need. Then they can call your friends and family and it won't be perfect but close enough. That's why you need to set up a code word with everyone close to confirm it's really them if they are acting weird.

And a few days ago Microsoft came out with copilot for office.



It's advanced to the point where you just need to tell it what to do. It's creates powerpoint slides from word documents, Analyzes data in excel just by telling it what you want. It's best to be a pro and know everything about office still so you can tell when it's wrong or fixes it when it has problems, but this makes so easy that most people won't even bother learning how to do it manually anymore and just trust office copilot is right. That's the most dangerous thing I think of about AI in general.
 
Facts. China has a Tik Tok for its kids in China that is educational. The CCP tik tok in America is making our kids dumb as hell.
I remember reading something about this that TikTok in China and America are totally different. China is trying to destroy our attention spans so we get dumber, can't focus, and don't know what to do when sh(*t hits the fan. I'm also say another news article but can't find it where they did a study with high school and college kids. They don't understand why China is such a problem because all they care about is that they can continue to use TikTok.

I know you all think I “hate” teachers…. But I fully support the idea of you smacking the shit out of those types of dipshits. They should be kicked out of school if they prove they don’t want to be there, and given mandatory labor jobs to earn food and shelter.

This. While teachers annoy the f@ck out of me concerning a few topics, I REALLY feel for them when it comes to discipline in the school. Which doesn't exist. Morons in charge need to realize the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

Agree. Trades need to be taught. I have a REALLY good group of kids this year but there are about 15-20 kids on campus that need to be removed and sent to a remote setting.

Too many administrators that like their cushy high paying jobs and wont have backbone and wont back the teachers, plus make teachers job harder by mandating things to justify their administrator role and salary.

Public education is broken. Not because its public, not because pf the teachers (some), but because of the system that has been created. Churn out students and graduate them no matter what with 50000 administrators per district trying to justify and keep their jobs, and endless wasteful spending.

Its not good intentions, though. Its “path of least resistance” mentality.

Fools rush in where wise men fear to tread. But there’s investors to worry about so they’re gonna rush products out and not worry about anything going wrong until after it goes wrong.
I think Google, Facebook, and Microsoft were playing it safe and felt people weren't ready for this type of generative AI, but once OpenAI exploded in popularity they had no choice but to release there own versions even though they aren't ready.

Even worse Facebook's model leaked online so people can run it on their own machines without any safeguards in place to stop them from using it to do horrible things. This isn't going to end well and makes me wish I could go live off grid somewhere to avoid all this sometimes.

Yeah I have a few friends whose main jobs is preparing fancy excel sheets and powerpoint presentations are very worried about this.

When Google bought an AI company maybe 10 years ago, I think it is called DeepMind (?). I remember reading that Google agreed to safeguards over the havoc that AI can (and now probably will) wreak. Facebook said no to those safeguards and their offer was consequently rejected-- at that time, Facebook had a mantra "move quickly and break things" that was their approach to technology (which explains their major f-ups in allowing bots to distribute fake news).

Anyway, now it appears that everyone is throwing caution to the wind when it comes to AI, because, you know, share holder prices and executive bonuses are more important than whatever goes wrong with the human race.

ChatGPT creator warns of AI dangers​

Humans will eventually need to “slow down this technology,” Sam Altman has cautioned

The genie is out of the bottle and it can't be put back in. It was probably inevitable, the technology is too capable to be fully controlled. In a sense, it was inevitable too. Very smart AI experts in the 90's were predicting that the ability of computers to match human intelligence would arrive by the 2020s. The only thing they were wrong about is that we'd need supercomputers in order to do it. Part of it was their assumptions were wrong. Turns out, higher order reasoning requires perhaps 1000-100000 times less of the computational requirements we had originally assumed.
