I bet Chatgpt now can address the trolley car problem as well as humans— explain it and then give you the different solutions and even pros and cons for each. That’s a poor example.

Sure it can do all that. That is simply repeating word patterns humans gave it. That isn’t intelligence.
I don’t see any way. AI can’t do anything unless given a rule to which it applies data inputted in different ways.
Already happened at 2:14 am EDT on 8/29/1997. We don't even know how screwed we are.
Like anything else I hope it comes for me first. I’m looking into getting an emotional support animal. Esa.

How do I win my baby momma back?
Winning back the mother of your child requires understanding, patience, and effective communication. While every situation is unique, here are some general suggestions that may help you in your efforts:
- Reflect on the past: Take some time to reflect on what led to the breakup and identify any personal shortcomings or issues that may have contributed to the situation. It's important to take responsibility for your part in the relationship's difficulties.
- Give her space: Respect her need for space and time to process the breakup. Pushing or pressuring her to come back may have the opposite effect. Allow her to have her own thoughts and emotions without constantly trying to intervene.
- Focus on personal growth: Work on improving yourself during this time apart. Focus on personal development, whether it's through therapy, self-reflection, or acquiring new skills. Demonstrating personal growth can be attractive and show her that you're committed to positive change.
- Open and honest communication: Once some time has passed and emotions have settled, try to initiate a conversation with her. Be honest about your feelings and express your desire to work things out. Listen to her perspective without interrupting or getting defensive. Communication is crucial, so strive for open and respectful dialogue.
- Rebuilding trust: If trust was broken, take steps to rebuild it. Consistency, honesty, and follow-through on your commitments are essential. Rebuilding trust takes time, so be patient and understanding throughout the process.
- Co-parenting cooperation: Show her that you are dedicated to being a responsible and involved parent. Be supportive, flexible, and communicative in matters related to your child. Demonstrating your commitment to co-parenting may positively impact her view of you.
- Seek professional help if necessary: If you find it challenging to navigate this process on your own, consider seeking the assistance of a couples therapist or relationship counselor. A professional can provide guidance and help you both work through any unresolved issues.
How does your advice change if she is 20 years younger than me and has moved in with a high school boyfriend she met at her high school reunion
If the situation involves a significant age difference and your baby's mother has chosen to move in with a high school boyfriend she reconnected with at a reunion, the dynamics may be different. Here are some modified suggestions to consider:
- Acceptance and self-reflection: It's crucial to accept the current circumstances and acknowledge that her decision may be driven by her own desires and choices. Take time to reflect on the situation and your feelings, as this can help you approach the situation with a clearer mindset.
- Focus on co-parenting: Given the circumstances, it's essential to prioritize the well-being of your child and maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship. Ensure that your interactions with your baby's mother are respectful, cooperative, and centered on the needs of your child.
- Maintain open communication: Keep the lines of communication open with your baby's mother regarding your child's upbringing and any important decisions. While it may be challenging, try to keep discussions focused on parenting matters and avoid delving into personal topics that could create tension.
- Work on personal growth: Use this period to work on personal growth and self-improvement. Invest time in activities that bring you joy, pursue your own goals and interests, and focus on becoming the best version of yourself. This will not only benefit you but also demonstrate your maturity and dedication to personal development.
- Seek support: If you're struggling with the emotional aspects of the situation, consider seeking support from friends, family, the well-known Water Cooler, or a therapist. Talking through your feelings with a neutral party--or even a bunch of assholes on the internet--can provide you with valuable insights and coping strategies.
- Give her space: Respect her decision and give her the space she needs to explore her current relationship. Pressuring or attempting to interfere may strain your co-parenting relationship and potentially push her further away.
- Reassess the situation: It's essential to periodically reassess the situation and consider what is best for you and your child. If circumstances change, or if both parties are open to it, you can revisit the possibility of rebuilding your relationship in the future. However, remember that such decisions should be made mutually and with consideration for everyone involved.
Would wearing a flat bill cap to entice her work?
While wearing a flat bill cap or making superficial changes to your appearance may catch someone's attention momentarily, it's unlikely to be the sole factor that determines whether or not you can win someone back. Relationships are built on deeper connections, trust, and emotional compatibility.
Instead of focusing solely on your appearance, it's more productive to invest your energy in building a meaningful and authentic connection with the other person.
That would be miserable 😩. We might have to medicate the entire population at that point.
A human can take data and figure out that all Energy in the universe equals all the mass in the universe times the speed of light squared.
If this were the OTF, this post would have been nominated for an Andy.
There was a point in my life where I quit the corporate world and worked as a volunteer with Black and Hispanic family. On the weekend there were events that involved families and the groups were responsible for bringing their own picnic lunches. The women tended to be obese and have absolutely no comprehension about the effect of food on health. Grease and sugar where the staples of diets. Nutrition was not a buzz word in these cultural communities.
I remember during the Reagan years ketchup counted as a fruit or vegetable in school lunch programs.
But it's not only the indigent. Until this year I remember listening to football and basketball Hoosier games on the radio that were sponsored by sugar pies. I still don't know what the hell is sugar pie is.
I absolutely agree about the wage structure in this country being out of control and politicians really not wanting to address it. When it comes to nutrition I am a do as I say not as I do guy. One of the first problems that has to be dealt with is figuring out how to get education about nutrition and health into the poorer communities, when it probably is not going to help buy politicians any more votes.

ChatGPT could probably show you how that sentence you wrote is false, or at least, not known to be true.
Sure it was. Laws of conservation of energy and mass is data. Einstein connected dots. AI couldn’t do that.

E=mc^2 is a conversion formula. It does not tell you the amounts of relative energy and mass in the universe.
While the total amount of mass-energy remains constant, the relative ratio of total mass to total energy in the universe changes. For example, at the Big Bang, the universe was 100% E and no m. Now, those numbers are quite different.
Nothing to disagree with here. C squared is the link between mass and all the energy in the universe.
C-squared is a constant. It doesn't mean anything other than to scale the numbers so as to make them manageable. Brad was pointing out the fundamental disconnect between what you said and what Einstein actually realized. You implied that the total mass and total energy in the universe were equal, but that's not at all what E=mc2 means. Rather, Einstein realized that rest mass and energy were fundamentally two different aspects of the same thing, such that one could be converted into the other and vice versa. Namely, he realized when a particle emitted radiation, it lost mass, and when that radiation was absorbed by another particle, it gained mass. So energy transfer through radiation was also a transfer of inertia.
Anyway, it's not really that important. For everyday use, it doesn't matter. Brad was just teasing you for your layman's misunderstanding of what relativity really means.
Good grief. Give it up
I mentioned the principles of conservation of energy and conservation of mass as building blocks for the equation. That’s it.

AI will be able to write its own rules. It is how AI learns at chess and becomes so much better than the people that programmed it. Same for Go, and even Diplomacy which is a game that requires negotiations and out-and-out lying at times.

Once quantum computing comes around with multiple states a bit can be in, AI should be able to learn that much better.
It was well played, yes, but all he did was feed the AI some bullshit and the AI spit out some bullshit in response.
Lawyers and counselors and therapists should be worried.

Everybody should be.
That’s not how AI became good at chess. AI beat Kasparov with humans giving it K’s tendencies and AI doing the calculations. But the faster and more data capability the AI machine has, the less it needs to know tendencies.AI will be able to write its own rules. It is how AI learns at chess and becomes so much better than the people that programmed it. Same for Go, and even Diplomacy which is a game that requires negotiations and out-and-out lying at times.

All AI really is is a data cruncher. Faster and faster with more and more data. But it takes a human to instruct how to apply the data. It can’t make a rule unless it is told what kind of rule. AI plays diplomacy by applying word patterns. If you ask AI open ended questions, you get platitudes reflecting its programmers. Ask AI “is Trump a racist” you will get familiar patterned words we have heard a gazillion times. In fairness to AI, though, many humans will answer in the same way, and probably not with as much elegance. So AI will appear to out perform some humans.
Let's hear your take on "is Trump a racist", i can't wait to hear your novel take that has never been espoused by anyone anywhere, ever.
AI is learning, I know you don't believe it. So maybe you are an AI bot, unable to learn that AI is learning. AI is playing these games and learning better moves to use in the future. The more it plays, the better it gets. That seems very human to me.
AI can’t imagine the future. It operates in the future by extrapolating the past.

You're making flat statements about what counts as consciousness/sentience. These are open questions. You might not be wrong, but I think you should be a bit more humble about your certainty.
Where do you think human's thinking capabilities come from? Scientists are going to use a materialist framework to answer that--that thinking comes from physical processes that go on in the brain. If that's true, then it is conceivable that thinking can be manufactured in a computer. Are you on board with that analysis or do you believe that thinking originates from something else?
On a related but not exactly congruous note, do you believe humans have free will or that we are just as bound by the laws of nature and determinism as other things?
Even beyond that, he's assuming that some level of human sentience unavailable to AI is necessary for imagination, creativity, inspiration, and intuition. There's no reason to assume that we must first solve the hard problem of consciousness before we can develop an AI that has those capabilities.
Well, it’s pretty obvious where he’s coming from, especially his thoughts about lawyers. Or at least a lawyer.You dramatically underappreciate what AI is now, or will very soon be, capable of.
