Fascinated with the rapidly emerging technology of ChatGPT, I wanted to check it out. What would it do with a general question about aging parents, my field of expertise? The technology is free and opening an account is simple. But how good is the information it generates? It is not a thinking being. It’s a general data resource. It uses all available knowledge on the internet to come up with answers to questions posed to it.
We already know that this technology can be astonishingly fast and give good responses, but it also makes mistakes and can give completely false information. Apparently the industry that developed this calls the fake answers “hallucination”. Well, was it going to hallucinate the answer to my basic request?
