What Chat GPT Didn’t Advertise About Itself
3 Questions That Reveal More Than You Had Imagined About The Abilities of This Open-Ai Tool
For the longest time, which isn’t that long, I wasn’t interested in talking about ChatGPT. It’s just that trends can often mislead people into thinking this is what the world needs — really?
A tool that has hypnotized or manipulated (the same thing) people into believing that the future isn’t people but machines.
Have you heard about the popular Dubai Chocolate? Yes, Fix was the original brand, but then everyone followed the idea and made an exact replica of it.
This behavior is a norm. It compels people to copy, steal, and “get inspired”. Inspiration, my friends, is often misunderstood.
Everything seemingly unique that comes to the stage is overused to an annoying extent. Who hasn’t incorporated the idea of pistachio kunafa with chocolate into their desserts after the hype?
I bet many.
Nonetheless, ChatGPT isn’t the original kunafa chocolate. It is a copy of all the original works of authors, writers, artists, marketers, production houses, etc.
No, it’s not me. It’s the machine itself talking down there. I just had to type a simple query — “Reasons why ChatGPT is bad?”
A tool is as good as what has been fed to it. It is software designed by a “human,” a species many people think will go extinct thanks to artificial intelligence tools like these.
Is this true, or is our naivety and excitement exaggerating the situation? A Magic 8-Ball won’t help us answer this, but we can try for fun.
Talking about fun, here is another question I asked the tool.
It’s pretty funny. Do you remember when Siri launched? Many of us asked various questions, but I wonder if anyone asked, “Siri, are you stupid?” or “Are you a know-it-all?” or “How trustworthy are you?”
Should we judge a tool on moral grounds since it plans to replace humankind? It reminds me of the i-Robot movie that showed us what the world would become if we let robots rule us.
Since I don’t own an iPhone, I couldn’t ask those questions, but I can undoubtedly drain this Open AI tool to ensure a non-biased introduction is painted before people further elaborate on its perks.
Here is another one.
Okay, now let’s gather what Chat GPT introduced itself as in a session of three pertinent questions about its character.
- “My responses are generated based on the data I have been trained on.”
Note: We can assume that the trainer was a human and the data is that which already exists.
- “I may still produce responses that are incomplete, inaccurate, or inappropriate in some contexts.”
Note: We can assume that this tool can’t judge whether it is or is not sharing content with context.
- “Therefore, it is essential to use critical thinking and judgment when interpreting the responses by any AI-generated model.”
Note: We can assume that any artificial intelligence-optimized tool requires a human to analyze and judge its responses.
- “…there may be limitations to its knowledge and ability to provide accurate answers, particularly in highly specialized and technical areas.”
Note: We can assume that this tool cannot provide accurate, relevant, or even technically correct responses related to fields like UX design.
- “It should be used alongside other sources of information and expertise when making important decisions or seeking highly specialized knowledge.”
Note: We can assume that Chat GPT is not a replacement for all the great minds that tech conglomerates are laying off!
- “Users should exercise critical thinking and evaluate the credibility and reliability of the information provided by Chat GPT.”
Note: We can assume that on its own, Chat GPT is nothing but simply a tool that needs to be guided and verified.
- “Use it in conjunction with other sources and exercise discernment.”
Note: On its own, this tool is, in fact, helpless and hopeless.
These risks, problems, and issues that the tool highlighted about itself shouldn’t act as an excuse to disregard artificial intelligence tools completely.
They have advantages in helping people be more productive and efficient, but they’re not a solid solution for the design and tech industries.
We must limit our overjoyed excitement and not consider these tools as replacements for humans. We need to treat AI tools as valuable assets, and that’s just it.
