It appears your low hanging fruit experiment wasn't so low hanging, Mr. Bond

@katebevan Yes! This has been my take since I tried to correct Bing chat's arithmetic error and it responded with "I'm sorry to hear you get a different value for the sum... Maybe you have made a mistake somewhere in your calculation..."

Some cheerful judges at the annual Combined Schools Science Immersion Showcase Day. We were well fed and learnt new things about balloon stretchiness and sanitizer wipes!

i think we should stop giving our ai bots female names (alexa, siri) and give them names from the old white boys club (john, james, chad) in honor of how overconfident and annoying they are even when they’re completely wrong or making stuff up

@bing The confident tone of the Bing Chat giving the incorrect answer and defending it should be concerning for students who'll be using it to study/cheat etc.

I told a colleague that logistic regression is AI and they got mad at me, so I made a chart. Find yourself. I am "Tinder is AI".

@Psy_Fer_ Imagine it just turned out to be signal interference 😳

So very cool! I keep thinking about how this could be used for composition or other artistic purposes. Or even just interfacing with #WatZatSong

Neuroscientists reconstructed a @pinkfloyd song by listening to brainwaves and using #AI software. This is the first time a song has been reconstructed from intracranial electroencephalography recordings. 🧠 https://t.co/9pf13YzWn2
