It has a list of all of my previous queries. It could review them if the
programmers wanted it to. But as far as I know, it gives you whatever you
want to hear in the present query, ignoring previous ones. It is busy right
now, but if I were to ask it: "Why is cold fusion pseudoscience nonsense?"
it would trot out the usual skeptical claims.

I saw an example where someone asked it to argue both sides in a debate. It
did a perfect job. As I recall, the question was self-referential. It was
something like: "Some people say artificial intelligence is a real
breakthrough. Others say it is just hype. Give two responses, on each side
of this debate, in the form of letters to the editor."

I can pose as a skeptic. As McKubre says, I know more reasons why cold
fusion might be wrong than any skeptic does. I could do a better job of
debunking it than any skeptic.


It does a great job at artificial stupidity. From the New York Times
comment section:


"I asked ChatGPT this: 'Can you give me a paragraph of meaningless business
jargon that sounds smart'. it responded thusly (middle management material
I'd say):"

"Leveraging our core competencies, we'll be able to drive synergistic
