I was reading about how colleges are upset because they suspect potential students are using AI to help them on their admission essays, but what appalled me was that one of the essays requested by Princeton, one of the best universities in the country, was to write a short essay about *"Which song should be used as the soundtrack for your life?*" So if I was 18 and trying to get into Princeton I'd ask GPT-4 to write a poem (I figured Princeton would like poems) about why that was a very dumb question and the university should be ashamed of itself for asking it. I'm not 18 but I asked GPT-4 anyway and in less than two seconds I got this:
*This question is often asked,But it’s not an easy task.For life is a symphony,With many notes and harmony.It’s not just one song,That can represent your lifelong.It’s a collection of melodies,That make up your memories.So, don’t be fooled by this query,It’s not a question to be taken seriously.For life is too complex to be defined,* *By just one song that comes to mind.* John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> vdq -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
