Ah yes, I've had fun with poetry too.
Rhyming in languages other than English seems difficult. I asked it for a silly rhyme in Dutch, but it didn't rhyme at all. But if I translate it to English word for word, it does rhyme. So there's something going on there.

I also tried asking it to write in 13th century Flemish, but that didn't work at all. However if I ask it to write in the style of certain medieval Flemish texts, it does! (at least it writes something that looks like middle Dutch)

Who is praising him? The person you responded to is pointing out what the issue is, not saying anyone is right for taking advantage of the issue lol. Are you a boy responding to the wrong comment? Maybe you just didn't actually read the comment you replied to or your reading comprehension is so poor you didn't understand what you were reading?

It has already demonstrated that it can write effective code as well.

It's worrying a lot of people because of this, it's not quite what many think either. I say worrying but really we're just maybe a bit scared of admitting that a lot of work that people do can be done by such a relatively immature algorithm.

Are you under the impression that people with exceptional means are in the same circumstances as the rest of us? Do you honestly believe that these hyperwealthy people are not segregated from the general public? That seems extremely naive.

And again, do you think Musk would enjoy being surrounded by liberal figureheads? Or do you think they might be pretty shitty to hang around with, to keep up appearances? Would you voluntarily go into the room of people who hate you and/or refuse to be seen with you?

I've been playing with chatgpt the past few days, giving it obscure scenarios (help me finish my excel vba based custom solitaire variant with a nonstandard deck and ruleset), and generally gathering info on sql, and chatting about memes occasionally.

Its been fun and interesting. I fed it a garbled mess of vba code that accessed an sql database with a dynamically generated query, asked what it did, and it spelt it all out in plain English completely accurate.

At one point it did a line by line breakdown for me and it was fantastic.

I double checked all of its answers, and except in one case, it seems accurate. And the case in which it was "wrong" was actually brought up as a caveat based on choice of sql systems, before I'd even noticed it was "wrong".

Its like having somebody to talk to about this code, and bounce ideas off of. It's how me and the sql guy at work do stuff together, he knows the syntax, I have ideas that seem obvious to me but lack the implementation knowledge, and he can do that part. It's great fun for me, and the tone of the generated text jives really well with my own conversational idiosyncrasies.
