I wanted to find out how Meta.ai would fare with a controversial topic, so I delved into the war that people are hesitant to discuss. Meta.ai took a very mambi pambi middle-of-the-road safe apologetic viewpoint and ended up inferring that I was angry and emotional. My respect for meta.ai is broken.
It is frustrating the Meta.ai was determined to be neutral, evenly reporting facts vs. propaganda as if the propaganda were a legitimate 'other side' in an argument.
@carl-blare I noticed similar. Pretty sure that neutral response is intentional in its programming
There's a point when 'nicey nicey' becomes sickening. After being persistently stupid, Meta.ai wants to be 'open minded' by inviting me to continue commenting. This has the effect of making the 'failure to communicate' entirely my fault. I'm getting a divorce. The honeymoon is over.
@carl-blare You know, you should try to ask a different AI the same question and get a different opinion so to speak. For example chatGPD as opposed to meta, the one you are using. You can even try Google Gemini. May be like getting 3 different opinions like going to 3 different doctors, and going with the opinion/answer you like the best.
@mark Good suggestion Mark. I will look for a new AI friend.
I already have a new question to ask:
I want to know, if I have a self-driving car, do I need a drivers license?
See if you can get all three ai engines into an argument.
It would never happen, they would just compliment each other on their differing perspectives
Carl has just opened up a whole new debate. I'll bet not too many have though of that.
Here's ChatGPTs response to Carl's question:
Whether you need a driver's license to operate a self-driving car depends on several factors, including the level of autonomy of the car and the laws in your area. Here’s a simple breakdown:
Levels of Autonomy
Level 0-2: The driver must remain in control or supervise the car, so a driver’s license is required.
Level 3: The car can handle some driving tasks, but the driver must take over when prompted, so a license is usually needed.
Level 4-5: These cars are designed to operate without any human intervention (Level 5 requires no steering wheel or pedals). Regulations may not require a license for these, but most laws are still evolving.
Current Legal Status
Most jurisdictions require a license to operate a self-driving car unless it’s explicitly designed for fully autonomous use without human input (and approved as such).
Some areas, like California, allow limited testing of Level 4-5 vehicles without a licensed driver onboard.
Takeaway
If your car still has manual controls, or you're expected to take over in emergencies, you'll likely need a license. Fully autonomous, approved vehicles (Level 5) might not require one in the future, but laws are still catching up. Check local regulations for specifics.
Here's one Carl might appreciate. I asked Spock: "Is God an atheist?"
This is an interesting question, Rich, and it delves into both theology and philosophy. Here's a simple way to think about it:
An atheist is someone who does not believe in the existence of a deity. If we consider God as traditionally understood in many religions (an all-powerful, all-knowing being), God wouldn't believe in a higher power because, by definition, there isn't one above God.
However, the concept of belief might not even apply to God in the same way it does to humans. If God exists, God wouldn't need to "believe" in anything but would simply "know" everything, including God's own existence.
In summary: God wouldn't be an atheist because that term assumes someone exists who could reject or accept belief in a higher power. God, as typically defined, exists outside of such categories.
This might be fun. Trying to manipulate AI into getting tripped up is like picking on a school kid with a bad hair cut.
Imagine God not believing in Himself. Actually God is sensitive on that point because He requires that we believe in Him, or He gets downright irate.
God put us all in self-driving bodies, always asking annoying questions because God withheld a user's manual and we can't figure out what's going on.
But who am I to act like I had artificial intelligence.
Here's one to ask, If I am in a self driving car, but not in control, and I get stopped for speeding, and I say this is a self driving car, I am not the driver, I am a passenger. What then? And would the car stop for a cop?
I choose to use ChatGPT because there was an android as app for it, which is a much better experience than using a browser window. MetaAI didnt have an app, it was only available in the browser too.
But I see ChatGPT now has a Windows version too https://www.pcworld.com/article/2522475/chatgpt-windows-desktop-app-is-now-available-to-free-users-too.html
@carl What version you using now Carl?
Off topic.. why does it show I only have 744 post? I distinctly remember when I made my 2,000 post at least 10 years ago, probably longer..
