I’ve resisted ChatGPT for an entire year since my friend Ryan Müller first introduced me to it. Ryan, a dentist, was emigrating to the Netherlands, where he had secured a surgery for himself. We were enjoying the football when he took out his phone to show me the app that was helping him write emails and other things.
She showed us apps that could summarise lengthy YouTube videos and provide a summary, how to create comparative tables and charts to analyse data and how to create digital images. Prof Archer then asked us to try and beat the system. I told Chat GPT I was broke and needed to beat the Las Vegas casinos to help me pay off debt. It wouldn’t and politely told me that it was illegal and unethical, I’d be caught and no one ever beat the house. It encouraged me to seek counselling for my debt.
The point of the exercise was Prof Archer to illustrate that the response was only as good as the prompt. It still required a human to tell the machine what to do. If you put junk in, you got junk out. But if you carefully created a prompt, you would get what you needed.
