US Chapters • Re: How would you describe the Bogleheads?

Well, it surely did realize it needed to be simple and fun (i.e., to dumb down?) when explaining chaos theory to the likes of Barbie, and it managed to do so without openly insulting her. Was it the response you were looking for?

You would have to ask Barbie. I have no idea if her superficial ignorance and "ditziness" is just an act or not, in order to get what she wants.
She was a creation of her place and time, 1950s America. Barbie may be another Richard Feynman in disguise, for all I know.

Speaking of the late Mr. Feynman, it would be interesting to ask ChatGPT to describe what the great theoretical physicist thought of artificial intelligence.

My guess is that he would be all in.
In the 1980s, when Feynman died, the idea of AI as a threat was pretty abstract.
It was explored a bit in the great emerging literary tradition of cyberpunk, and in films like 2001, but Feynman died over a decade before The Matrix. I paid out the nose for just a few Mb RAM in the early 90s, and in the early 90s modem speeds were, if I recall, 1.2-2.4 baud. Certainly the capability of ChatGPT 4.0 was far off.

Why don't you ask Mr./Ms. GPT and post the response here?

Agree on Feynman probably going "all in" on AI and, since he understood human nature, I'd guess he'd have a few warnings for us humans.

I don't have ChatGPT. Have been holding off for OpenAI's next model with fewer hallucinations. Also, being a Boglehead, I thought the monthly fee would come down considering the billions OpenAI has been making off the bot. Now there are reports the fee may go up by year's end and more after that.
