<div dir="ltr">And still, Gordon claims GPT-4 doesn't understand. So ridiculous. And notice he praises the engineers because in his superstitious belief, it is not the machine that is intelligent, it is the engineers that program it, they have the merit to create something that "mimics" understanding. That maybe be true but it is completely beyond the point, but any excuse is good when dealing with cognitive dissonance. <br><br>Giovanni </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Apr 24, 2023 at 4:09 PM Gordon Swobe via extropy-chat <<a href="mailto:extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org">extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Apr 24, 2023 at 4:46 PM Jason Resch via extropy-chat <<a href="mailto:extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org" target="_blank">extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">This is the first instance I'm aware of seeing AI show a sense of humor by getting a joke.

The developers at OpenAI seem to have made progress on this front in version 4. <br><br>Here is a joke of mine that it did not get, but was able to get after I informed it that it was a joke:<br><br>Me: A friend of mine was telling me all about how his girlfriend thought she was pregnant. Period. End of story.</div><br>GPT-4: It sounds like your friend and his girlfriend experienced a pregnancy scare. These situations can be quite stressful for couples, as they often involve uncertainty and important life decisions. It's crucial for your friend and his girlfriend to communicate openly about their feelings and concerns in order to navigate this situation effectively. They might also want to consider discussing their plans for the future, such as whether they want to have children, and what steps they could take to prevent unintended pregnancies (e.g., using contraception consistently and correctly).<br><br>Me: I was telling you a joke and you didn't get it<br>.<br>GPT-4: Apologies for misunderstanding the context of your statement. As an AI language model, I sometimes struggle to recognize sarcasm or humor without clear indications. If you have any other questions or topics you'd like to discuss, feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to provide a helpful response.<br><br>Me: Do you understand why it was funny?<br><br>GPT-4: Upon re-reading your original message, I understand that you were attempting to create a humorous situation by using a play on words with "period" and "end of story." In this context, "period" can be interpreted as both the end of a sentence and a woman's menstrual cycle. By saying "period" followed by "end of story," you were implying that the girlfriend's period arrived, indicating that she was not pregnant, and that this resolved the situation.<br><br>My earlier response did not recognize the humor in your statement, but I hope this explanation demonstrates my understanding of the intended joke.<br>---<br><br>GPT-4 is quite ready to be the life of the party, but they are working on it. :)<br><br>-gts</div></div>
