Stephen,Very smart to put my question re: CEOs vs AI to ChatGPT. My question regarded “medium and long-term” capabilities. Your query to the bot was for the present time. And yet, nevertheless, I interpret the bot’s response to you to be, essentially, that there are certain CEO positions that AI capability can fill right now - with some qualifications. I’d say that’s a bit disrupting.
And we could hope that CEOs everywhere are in fact already asking ChatGPT, et alia to "help" them with some of the problems they maybe believe that they might/could/should be able to help with? I'm guessing *some* CEOs have amazing admins or executive teams at their elbow already doing this, and some of them will consult the AI-Oracle and thereby become *better* at their jobs quickly?
Since some of us here (not me) make their living coding daily, I can imagine that your code is already being improved. A close colleague of mine who does in fact code daily but is also something of a skeptic of the *hype* around AI gave over two weeks ago and began experimenting. He claims that it doesn't really help him *write* code but it does help him verify it in ways that a "first reader" might, but that a compiler wouldn't (raising the level of analysis form syntactic to semantic?).
Glen already exposed us to a text summarizer and I find this to be a good use of ChatGPT for myself... perhaps I should run all my FriAM posts through it and see if it can succinctify me? As thus?!:
/The exchange discusses the potential of AI to fill CEO positions presently and in the future, with certain qualifications. It suggests that CEOs may already be using AI to improve their job performance. The conversation also touches on how AI can improve coding by verifying it in ways a compiler cannot. Finally, the exchange mentions using ChatGPT as a text summarizer to make posts more concise./

It agreed that the AP could not be represented as a mathematical set, but it continued to talk about the AP as if it were a set. So it suggested formulating the AP as a graph, or a tree, or as the states of a dynamical system. I pushed for a non-set formalism and it gave me fuzzy sets. I guess I have to try harder. Roger, Cool. Can you say more about a different formalization you're after?
