I thought it was cool, wife was not happy though…
Last night at dinner my daughter asked us if she had a loaf of bread that was 1000km long and she took 100 bites of it, how much bread would be left. We weren’t sure how to answer so I turned on gpt and relayed the question. The bot answered “not much because 1000km is about 600 miles and so 100 bites would be a very insignificant amount.” My daughter was still trying to process it so my wife told her, it’s the same distance from Grammies house to Disneyland (we spend Christmas in California).
That’s when the bot chimed back in and said correct, it is about the same distance as San Francisco to LA. I thought it was cool that the bot figured out on its own that her mother lives in San Francisco. I had used gpt a few times on our trip to Cali but never specifically told it that we were in San Fran or traveling to LA. It figured it out on its own, saved that information and spit it back out to add to conversation. My wife was not pleased on several levels. One that it was listening to our conversation and contributed to it, two that if figured out who and where grammie was and three that I defended it, stating how remarkable it was. She already is slightly opposed to the whole AI thing since she was raised on movies like Terminator and 2001 Space Odessey. Thoughts?
