Hi All,

Per said :
<<I think you wont find much "I" in the AI that produced this. It probably just nicked it from some student's computer class copybook.>>

It might just have been one of the QL FORUM's Bots picking brains ?

I think I did a couple of those a wee while back in the Assembly Language eMagazine.

Remember, these so called AI chat bots are burning through resources every time someone asks a question. It seems it wastes one bottle of water (capacity unknown) for every query.

Microsoft is attempting to reopen the nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island for their own use, just to power their AI chat bot.

Cheers,

Yes, a few of us did back in April last year. (multiplication). Remember?

I did this just to test the AI. I havent checked the result for efficiency, but it looks textbook. Literally.

My second test was for a genuinely useful purpose, although the results so far have been poor.

Like a whole lot of people, Im worried and appalled at the energy consumption of these things - among many other criticisms. They are first and foremost tools of their makers and investors. Ultimately, for the rest of us it will be a question of regulation and control to make them safe, useful, and non-invasive. Considering the potential for power and profit which attracts certain people like flies to shit, itll be a tough race to do that before some serious damage is done.

I doubt it. It obviously doesnt know about S*BASIC.

Hi per,
Nice adaptation !

What happens when AI does not know, does it as an average human would go and research and find out what the answer to the question.

Or does the AI system, say "No do know", or supply rubbish answers...

So true. So very true.

Hi Derek,

Here is COPILOT's reply :
Great question! When an AI, like myself, doesn't know the answer to a specific query, there are a few potential approaches it might take:

Admit Limitations: The AI may acknowledge that it doesn't know the answer and provide information on where to find it. This is similar to a human saying, "I'm not sure, but you might want to check X."

Search for Information: For questions requiring up-to-date or specific information, the AI might perform a web search to find relevant data. This can help provide accurate and current answers. However, my ability to perform web searches or access external information depends on my capabilities.

Provide Best Effort Answers: The AI might attempt to give an educated guess based on its training data and knowledge. This is akin to a human making an informed guess when they aren't entirely sure.

Avoid Incorrect Responses: A well-designed AI strives to avoid giving wrong or misleading answers. Instead of guessing when uncertain, it will often stick to providing accurate and reliable information within its capabilities.

In essence, a good AI system aims to balance between admitting its limitations and leveraging available resources to provide the best possible answer. It doesn't resort to giving "rubbish" answers, as that would be unhelpful and misleading.
