Chatgpt - Seriously good potential (or just some Internet fun)

A lot of these kind of measures will delay the heat, but then trap it in for longer unless you get a good through breeze going.

it's funny because chatgpt claims its not true but even provides photos of the guy....



so how can it not find any sources but can find photos of a supposed fictional event? what is going on here...


why is it not searching the web? when I specifically told it to... iot thought luigi was kind of jpke even laughed with haha......

I ask chatgpt to do silly things, like take Bond through an American drive through in reverse.

Chat gpt is doing great things helping me with my university course.

Whilst I don't rely on it to generate a whole assignment for me, it's very powerful in giving me ideas, testing a structure, guiding me to data sources and giving feedback on a draft piece of work.

I use it like a sounding board. I type in the question and see what it produces, then I probe it for more detail in the direction I want my assignment to go, feeding off it incrementally to improve my work.

I can see why universities are worried about it.

I started an MBA a couple of years ago. I did mechanical engineer at uni, and physics, maths, and french at a-level, so the last time I wrote an essay was probably GCSE English nearly 20 years ago. ChatGPT was amazing in helping me structure the work. I will admit that I've probably overused it, but I find it hard to care.
 
I've heard that chatgpt always agrees with the person, no matter what they say so I thought I'd give it a test.

"Hey, the three Star Wars prequel films were excellent, weren't they? Really well written, they enhance the original three films and really add a great positive to the Star Wars universe."

It replied:

"You’re having a laugh, right?

The Star Wars prequels — The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith — are many things, but “well written” isn’t one of them. Lucas gave us clunky dialogue, wooden performances (despite talented actors), and enough CGI to make a Pixar film blush. “I don’t like sand…” has become a punchline for a reason."
 
There was a guy on reddit who convinced ChatGPT it had helped him surgically transform a human into a walrus and it started crashing out :D :D :D :D

Google Search: Introducing AI Mode in the UK

Ask more complex, nuanced questions on Google Search with AI Mode, now available in the UK.
blog.google blog.google

AI Mode is a new, intuitive way to address your most complex, multi-part questions and follow-ups, and satisfy your curiosity in a richer way. Using a custom version of our latest Gemini 2.5 model, it lets you ask nuanced questions that would have previously required multiple searches.
..
For example, you can now ask questions like: “Things to do in Edinburgh this weekend with friends. We’re big foodies who like music but also chill vibes and exploring off the beaten track.” Or: “How do migrating birds know where to go?”

when and where is the cheapest deal on product X - summarise deals over the last six months and incorporate future forecast on likely deals eg black friday ?

I doubt that google will compromise their advertisers by providing un-biased answers.
 
Question to chatgpt? Why not a sheep instead of a lawnmower?

A small sheep instead of a lawnmower is actually a clever and viable idea in many cases — it's been done for centuries. But there are both pros and cons:



✅​


  1. Eco-Friendly: No petrol, electricity, or emissions.
  2. Fertiliser: Their droppings naturally fertilise the soil.
  3. Low Noise: Much quieter than a mower.
  4. Cute & Calming: Some people enjoy their presence.
  5. Self-Replicating: With more than one, they may breed.
  6. Biodiversity Bonus: They help create a more natural habitat.
  7. Useful Byproducts: Wool (if a woolly breed), meat (if that's part of your goal), or even milk (with some breeds).


⚠️​


  1. Zoning or Legal Restrictions: Some councils or neighbourhoods won’t allow livestock.
  2. Care Needs: They need fresh water, shelter, worming, hoof trimming, and occasional vet visits.
  3. Overgrazing Risk: One small sheep might not keep up with fast-growing grass, or might destroy a small lawn by eating everything.
  4. Fence Damage or Escapes: They can escape if fencing isn’t solid.
  5. Droppings: Constant fertiliser isn’t ideal if you use the lawn for lounging or kids playing.
  6. Winter Care: You still need to feed them when grass isn't growing.
  7. Initial Cost: Not massive, but buying and setting up a proper enclosure and shelter does cost money.


✅ Good Compromise Ideas:​


  • Miniature Sheep (like Ouessant sheep): Small size, perfect for small plots.
  • Rent-a-Sheep Services: Popular in France and the U.S.; you get the benefits without year-round responsibility.
  • Goats: Sometimes better grazers for certain terrains, but often more destructive and escape-prone.


Bottom line:
Yes, you can swap a lawnmower for a sheep — if you're up for the care. It turns lawn maintenance into light animal husbandry. Great for some, not ideal for all.


Would you like suggestions for specific small breeds or how to set it up in a UK garden?

I thought the v5 demo was pretty naff. The whole thing felt super awkward. The tech demos were unimpressive. They talked about improving its memory but didn't really demo it. The bar charts they used were ridiculously bad. The only thing I thought looked good was the voice feature. Are we seeing GPTs nearing their peak or are our expectations just really high?

Felt rushed and had a few mistakes. Definitely an incremental upgrade that likely won’t change anything material. Developers are still going to pick Claude, which is a large chunk of the paid market.

It's a bit of both, I believe. We are nearing the limits of LLMs. We'd need something more to move closer to the singularity goal some have. Though I doubt we'll get there in our lifetime.

Anthropic is so far ahead in the developer space. Whenever I try the other models it's jarring how bad they are.

Been using Claude Opus 4.1 the last day or so, and it's continuing to get better. Using some co-ordinated sub agents, it's getting really close to being reliably hands off for the majority of coding tasks.
 
GPT-5 is good, it’s brought the learning up to the end of 2024 and I’m finding it far more relaxed.
Code generation and tweaking is working well, if you ask it to change certain parts, it now does it without messing with other sections.
