MSD Capital has successfully completed its takeover of Charlton Athletic Football Club, with former Sunderland executive Charlie Methven joining the club as part of a restructuring of the senior management team. In addition to Methven, the club will also retain Andy Scott in his current role. Meanwhile, Dean Holden remains as the manager of the playing squad. This takeover marks a significant shift for the club and is expected to bring increased investment and a renewed focus on long-term success. With Methven's experience and the continued leadership of Holden, Charlton Athletic is poised for a bright future as it looks to build on recent successes and establish itself as a top club in English football.
In case you couldn't tell, I poked a couple of words into it and asked it about the imminent takeover at Charlton Athletic
I liked your post assuming it was your parody of the kind of stuff it spews out. Surely this answer is not for real, not least because it keeps telling me that its only been programmed with data up to the end of 2021?
It's Artificial Intelligence software that aims write text indistinguishable from human text.
Here's my interaction with it a few weeks ago before the most recent update.
Me: "Which players should Charlton Athletic buy in January?"
ChatGPT: "It is not appropriate for me to provide specific recommendations on players that Charlton Athletic should target for transfer in January or any other month. Transfer decisions are complex and involve many factors, including the team's needs, budget, and the availability of suitable players. These decisions are typically made by the team's management and scouting staff, who are in a much better position to assess the team's needs and identify potential transfer targets.
As a language model, I do not have access to current information on Charlton Athletic's financial situation, player availability, or other relevant factors, and I am not able to make informed recommendations on transfer targets. I recommend that Charlton Athletic's management and scouting staff consult with relevant experts and make transfer decisions based on their knowledge and expertise."
This will replace Google searches. I see Google have scrambled to get their own ai bot out there - panicked but good move by them.
I use chatgpt at work to brain storm ideas. Super useful.
Possible, but I would guess training the G(generative) P(re-trained) T(ransformer) would normally be slower than doing a page index/rank in Google. So, for very up-to-date stuff I would think Google search would still be useful.
Someone explained to me the difference between Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and ChatGPT is the latter. I am not smart enough to remember what they said. But ultimately I think it means ChatGPT has read lots of stuff and uses that stuff to give answers out. AI is very different to that but I don't know how.
ChatGPT reminds me of that computer in I, Robot that they go and visit and it can answer every question. Once it has a conversational interface (like Siri) it's going to be amazing. But it is worth remembering that, despite the confidence with which it presents its answers, it gets loads wrong still.

Google has become increasingly difficult to master I find. The commercial aspect of the results muddies the water when trying to find some pretty simple stuff.
Crypto, Blockchain, Ai , VR there’s a whole new technology based world developing that I haven’t got a foggiest clue about.
Used to think of my parents as being technical dinosaurs not knowing how to work a video player or a Walkman. Suspect I’m going to be the same clueless dinosaur by 50.
I only used it once(the 5 free questions) and it showed to me it wasn't as clever as it made out
Lisowski has never won a tournament and Allen has been the most dominant player this season and the shootout is 1 frame not 3
It sounds really authoritative, but often gets critical details wrong: I asked it what happens at the end of the TV series "Broadchurch", and it got a couple of the relationships between characters wrong.
It's probably quite good for exploring ideas as someone mentioned, but I am not sure I could tell when to trust it.

I'm in the same boat. Completely clueless.
To be honest though without meaning to be luddite having seen how social media has changed the world and just generally how many are slaves to/ glued to their laptops/ phones all day every day I'm quite inclined to step away from it all.
Technology is superb is so many ways but not necessary great in terms of happiness and humanity.
It seems to play such a major part of life in people's day to day existences that we've moved away from fundamental human behaviours and interactions in many ways.
Internet and smartphones are great for many things but I do often wonder if life was better before their proliferation in many ways and the older I get the more being "off grid" from it all appeals.
I heard about this on French radio about a month ago. Apparently students had been using it for evaluations or suchlike. They had a teacher on describing how so many entries had been alike but different because they'd been done by ChatGPT.
This could lead to changes in education. I am of the opinion that continual evaluation is better then exams but as this technology develop then maybe examination will again become more prominent.

VR is a fad - the only thing i can think of that would be made better by VR is live events. AI and machine learning will change the way we work, crypto will change the way we interact with money.
My S-I-L told me it is really good at writing code.
I nod along to this sort of comment as I appreciate it's clever stuff - but really - that is the sum total of what I can take in. I think the video below explains why there is a degree of excitement. (Still can't take it in though )

You've got to strap yourself in and be ready to ride the next crypto bull run my friend ........ it's how all of us uber kool hip crypto dudes made our fortunes whilst the rest of you archaic 9 to 5 luddites slept your way through the revolution. Bro.

I’m 53 this year so you’ve got to be banging down the big 5 0 any time last year

VR is going no where. People have been saying it's a fad for close to a decade now and it's popularity is starting to take off.
Live events are starting to happen, gaming & film are more immersive. Virtual worlds are being created that will use it.

I'll transcribe my discussion with it about Charlie Methven later
Eh?? Am i missing something lol

Some say it is a solution looking for a problem.
The previous quickest was TikTok which took 9 months to reach 100m. Instagram took 2 years!

Ronnie Moore is a name we know,
A Charlton Athletic fan, and oh,
The views he holds, truly mind-boggling,
Contrary, debatable, always joggling.
He spells words wrong, that's plain to see,
But his opinions, are the real mystery.
Defying logic, always taking the other side,
On matters related to Charlton, he won't abide.
A true rebel, in his own right,
Ronnie Moore, always puts up a fight.
No matter what others may say or do,
His views on Charlton, he always pursue.
So unorthodox, so full of surprise,
Ronnie Moore, always keeps us eyes.
His devotion to his team, never in doubt,
But his views, leave us always in a shout.
