Tell Shit that some day soon all cat videos will be generated this way.
We won't even have to tell it, OpenAI will generate them automatically.

ASIDE: Did you see the sub-feature (video) about AI chess on the right
hand side of that page? It's time for the human race to pack up and leave.

I, for one, will welcome our new, digital overlords.

Our current, human ones are a joke.

So that I don't see them, I filter out:
-crossposts (sent to multiple newsgroups) at a time
-posts sent via Google Groups* due to spam from that source
-trolls (eg. "Bucky Breeder" and his many sock puppets)

If you do the same, the group will be easier for you to read.

At least AI is honest about it, unlike our human overlords.

Pooh, can you repeat your experiment, but this time ask: "Could you
organise an orgy in a brothel?"

I fear 'piss up' is a UK expression and the US-trained AI may have
faltered over the word.

Actually chess seems to be at least as popular today as pre-pandemic
despite the fact that in-person tournament play was practically
non-existent during COVID. "Chess by server" has been a big part of
why but no question at least in Canada attendence at in person events
has mushroomed.

(I'm an officer in the Chess Federation of Canada and see the monthly
and quarterly reports and no question in percentage terms the growth
has been the highest in 2022-23 as any time in the last 25 years - we
definitely got a "post COVID bump")

OK, since you are reluctant, I did it for you.

My Question: Are politicians capable of organising an orgy in a brothel?

Chat GPT reply:

Politicians, like any other individuals, have the capacity to organize
events or gatherings. However, the legality of organizing an orgy in a
brothel would depend on the laws of the jurisdiction where such
activities are taking place. Engaging in sex work or related activities
may be regulated or prohibited in many places.

Politicians, as public figures, are generally expected to uphold the law
and adhere to ethical standards. Engaging in illegal or unethical
activities can have serious consequences for their careers and
reputations. It's crucial for individuals, including politicians, to be
aware of and comply with the laws and regulations in the areas where
they operate. Organizing activities that violate legal or ethical
standards could lead to legal repercussions, damage to one's public
image, and potential consequences in the political arena.

Comment: Note the spelling. AI is definitely trained on US text e.g.
'organize'

Conclusion: AIs have NO SENSE of humour. Theyz German in character,
American in spelling.
