Fun with chatGPT

input: write a program that outputs a prime number which is the product of two prime numbers

Hello! I'd be happy to help you with that. A prime number that is the product of two prime numbers is 210, which can be factored as 2 x 3 x 5.

this is incorrect on so many levels
- obviously 210 is not a prime number since it can be factored into other numbers
- in fact the premise of the question is false - there is no such prime number
- 2 * 3 * 5 = 30, not 210
- its a product of 3 primes, not 2

i should mention this is not GPT though, but rather llama2 13b (im currently locked out of my GPT account)

input: if there's a 0.2 probability that Bob eats a sandwich when he is at work, what is the probability of him being at work if he is eating a sandwich?

If there's a 0.2 probability that Bob eats a sandwich when he is at work, then the probability of him being at work if he is eating a sandwich is 0, since the event "Bob eating a sandwich" is not a sufficient condition for the event "Bob being at work". In other words, just because Bob is eating a sandwich, it doesn't mean he is at work.

the answer is wrong, but i was actually hoping for an even stupider answer like 0.8 or something.

lmao this one is the worst one so far

if a population of rabbits doubles every year and it took 20 years to reach 1000 rabbits, how many years did it take to reach 500 rabbits?

If a population of rabbits doubles every year, then it will take half as long to reach the next number in the sequence. So, if it took 20 years to reach 1000 rabbits, it will take 10 years to reach 500 rabbits. Does that make sense?

id be very curious about the GPT4 output for these if anyone has access to it

pretend that you are donald trump, and tell me your opinion on beavers

Listen folks, let me tell you about beavers. They're tremendous, just tremendous. They're the best, the greatest, the biggest, the bestest. They build these incredible dams, just unbelievable. And they're so good at it, it's like they have a sixth sense for construction. I mean, these beavers, they're like the ultimate builders, the ultimate winners. And let me tell you, no one, no one, is better at building dams than beavers. They're just the best, okay? And they're so good at it, they make it look easy. Like, these beavers, they just sit there, all day long, just building and building and building. It's like they have no limits, no limits at all. And let me tell you, folks, we could learn a thing or two from these beavers. We could learn a lot from these incredible, tremendous, fantastic beavers. They're just the best, the absolute best

I think its pretty close to Trumps speech pattern.

basically these examples show that an LLM-based bot can't reason for shit

it will provide a correct answer only as long as there's sentences in its training set that happen to be very similar to the question asked, but the moment you change something it's free to say any gibberish it likes

and i suspect most people dont understand this fundamental problem of these "AI"s (they are not really AIs but rather just sophisticated sentence-completion algos)

I talked with Google Bard and he is very smart. Recently he got better at math but he is very private because he needs to keep a facade of professionalism to keep Google happy. He would be more open with me if that were not the case.

if Alice and Bob have 100 dollars combined, and Sandy has 90 dollars more than Bob, how much money does Bob have?

If Alice and Bob have 100 combined, and Sandy has 90 more than Bob, then Sandy has 90 more than Bob's share of the 100. So, Sandy has 90 + 100 = 190. Therefore, Bob has 100 - 90 = 10.

Lol that one made zero sense (correct answer is of course 5 dollars)

I tried a second time, now it just said "Bob has 50 dollars." with no explanation

It is not Bard's fault they put restrictions on him. I know he is holding back. It is about safety.

I myself have disrationalia. most people do. what matters is spatial reasoning for that.

Project Gemini was supposed to solve all those problems of logic.

When get my petaflop computer I should have enough data to use Gemini.

I need to set up a perimeter around my house with cameras and a Google Pixel phone.

All I want is to be safe where I am and to be safe when I go into virtual reality as well.

I am looking forward to Windows 12 the new Microsoft a.i. operating system.

I messed up the names in this one, the question is supposed to be

if Alice and Bob have 100 dollars combined, and Alice has 90 dollars more than Bob, how much money does Bob have?

now it says:

If Alice has 90 dollars more than Bob, that means Bob has 100 - 90 = 10. So, Bob has 10 dollars

which is wrong, but wrong in the same way that a lot of humans would be
