I was wondering if you've read any of the "Sectasaur" short story about the discovery of a giant prehistoric insect in the Antarctic ice caves, written by Scottish author Jameson Hunter, featuring John Storm and Charley Temple?

I have not read the “Sectasaur” short story by Jameson Hunter, but I have found some information about it on the web. It seems to be a science fiction adventure story that involves the discovery of a giant prehistoric insect in the Antarctic ice caves, as well as other ancient creatures that have been frozen for millions of years. The story features John Storm, a British explorer and adventurer, and Charley Temple, a female scientist and environmentalist, who team up to investigate the mysterious Sectasaur and its origins. The story also explores the themes of global warming, climate change, and the impact of human activities on the natural world. The story is part of a series of John Storm and Elizabeth Swann adventures, which are also written by Jameson Hunter.

Some of the chapters of the story are available online, such as Chapter 1, which describes the US Arktos 1838 expedition that first encountered the Sectasaur, and Chapter 4, which introduces Jimmy Watson, a young boy who dreams of building a giant robot ant. The story also has a website, Sectasaur, which contains more information about the plot, the characters, the artwork, and the author. The website also has a full-size image of the Sectasaur, which looks very impressive and realistic.

I hope this helps you learn more about the “Sectasaur” short story by Jameson Hunter. If you are interested in reading it, you can check out the website or look for the book online or in your local library. It sounds like a very exciting and imaginative story. ��

 

 

 

CHATBOT ASSESSMENTS

 

We wonder then if any of the AI chatbots may have read the 'Sectasaur' story so far!

 

 

 

 

 

Is there any basis of truth in the "Sectasaur" Antarctic John Storm adventure?

The “Sectasaur” Antarctic John Storm adventure is a work of fiction, but it is based on some scientific facts and speculations. For example, the story involves the discovery of a giant prehistoric insect, resembling a giant ant, that was frozen in the Antarctic ice for millions of years. This is inspired by the real fossil genus Titanomyrma, which was a group of giant ants that lived during the Eocene epoch, about 50 million years ago. Some of these ants were as big as hummingbirds, and had wingspans of up to 15 cm. They are known from fossils found in Germany, England, Wyoming, and British Columbia123. The story also explores the possibility of cross-Arctic dispersal of thermophilic insects, which means that these ants could have migrated from Europe to North America via a land bridge that existed across the Arctic when the climate was warmer. This is a hypothesis that has been proposed by some paleontologists to explain the distribution of Titanomyrma and other ancient organisms12. However, there is no evidence that Titanomyrma or any other giant insect ever existed in Antarctica, or that they could survive the freezing temperatures there. The story also involves the use of DNA technology to recreate and enhance extinct species, which is a controversial and hypothetical topic that has ethical and ecological implications. The story is meant to be an entertaining and imaginative adventure, not a realistic or accurate depiction of paleontology or biology.

ABOUT BARD & BING

 

ChatGPT and Bard are both chatbots powered by artificial intelligence.  Each AI algorithm has its own strengths and weaknesses.

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you Bing. We wonder how John Storm, adventurer and amateur anthropologist, as portrayed in the 'Cleopatra The Mummy' screenplay, might compare with Indian Jones, in their quest to find lost antiquities?

You’re welcome. John Storm is the protagonist of the ‘Cleopatra The Mummy’ screenplay, which is a science fiction adventure story that follows Storm and his team as they search for the tomb of Cleopatra in Egypt, where they encounter a resurrected mummy who claims to be the legendary queen [1]. Storm is an adventurer and an amateur anthropologist, who is fascinated by ancient cultures and mysteries. He is also a former Navy SEAL, who has a knack for combat and survival. He is accompanied by his friends and colleagues, such as Dr. Sarah Jones, a British archaeologist, and Omar, a local guide.

Indiana Jones is the protagonist of the Indiana Jones film series, which are action adventure films that depict Jones and his adventures around the world, often involving the pursuit of historical artifacts and the confrontation of supernatural forces [2]. Jones is a professor of archaeology, who is an expert in various fields and languages. He is also a daring and resourceful adventurer, who uses his whip, his hat, and his revolver as his trademark items. He is often aided or hindered by his allies and enemies, such as Marion Ravenwood, his former lover, and Rene Belloq, his rival.

The two characters have some similarities and differences in their personalities and stories. They are both adventurous, intelligent, and courageous, who are passionate about their fields of study and exploration. They both face various dangers and challenges, often from ancient traps, hostile natives, or evil organizations, and use their skills and wits to overcome them. They both have a sense of humor and a charm, and attract the attention of beautiful women.

However, they also have some distinct traits that set them apart. Storm is more of a modern and realistic character, who is set in the present day and deals with contemporary issues and technologies. He is also more of a team player, who works with his friends and partners, and values their safety and well-being. Jones is more of a classic and nostalgic character, who is set in the past and evokes the style and spirit of the movie serials of the 1930s and 1940s. He is also more of a lone wolf, who works alone or with occasional companions, and often gets into trouble and danger.

Therefore, there is not a clear comparison between the two characters, but rather a contrast of their different eras, genres, and themes. They both represent different aspects of adventure and archaeology, and appeal to different audiences and tastes. I hope this helps you understand the similarities and differences between John Storm and Indiana Jones. �� 

 

 

 


HOW IS BARD DIFFERENT TO CHATGPT ?

Well Bard has a "Google it" button which allows users to fact check and find out what sources have been used, such as Wikipedia.

Google senior product director Jack Krawczyk is quoted as saying he used Bard to help him plan his child's birthday party. The chatbot came up with a theme which included his child's love of rabbits and gymnastics and also suggested party games and food.

Krawczyk explained to the BBC that Bard is "an experiment" and he hopes people will use it as a "launchpad for creativity".

Google say Bard is programmed not to respond to offensive questions and there are filters to stop it from sharing harmful, illegal or personal information - but vice president of Google Research, Zoubin Ghahramani said like any methods of protection these could sometimes not work.

Both chatbots are easy to access and use and are equally fast at responding to queries. You'll need to create a Google account to use Bard, but that only takes a few minutes if you don't already have one. With ChatGPT, you can use any email address (including your work email) to sign up and get started immediately.

The most significant benefit of Bard is that it draws real-time information from the internet for its responses. ChatGPT, on the other hand, is trained with a finite set of data that hasn't been updated since 2021. Therefore, Bard gives more up-to-date answers to topical questions.

Another advantage of Bard is that you can see different "drafts," or variations, of responses. ChatGPT gives a singular (and often shorter) response to queries. Both chatbots rely on the same sources, including Wikipedia, Common Crawl, and reputable articles from the web. Bard is likelier to cite sources in its answers, whereas ChatGPT typically states things as facts without providing a source.

If you want to know how to do something, Google Bard gives more precise instructions. Bard is also better at summarizing complex concepts, so if you have a question about something you don't understand, Bard will generally give you a more helpful answer.

Bard's responses seem more human, while ChatGPT is all business. When asked if it's sentient, ChatGPT gives a definitive "no," while Bard says it's unsure, citing the philosophical debates about the meaning of "sentience."

ChatGPT seems more thoughtful regarding complicated ethical questions, drawing upon philosophical concepts to reach its conclusions. Bard gives vague answers to subjective questions about ethics and morality.

ChatGPT tends to stick to the facts (pre-2021), yet Bard is more conversational and gives more in-depth answers. Bard's responses are typically better formatted and easier to read. ChatGPT sometimes writes long paragraphs and isn't as consistent in its formatting.

While Bard can learn new facts from the internet, ChatGPT learns from the conversations it has, so don't tell it anything you don't want the world to know! And with that in mind, make sure that what you publish is accurate. If anyone else publishes factual errors, we wonder how that misinformation may affect people and corporations. Doubtless, the Chabots will have some kind of rectification procedure built in.

ChatGPT and Bard can be most helpful in the workplace. AI chatbots can perform mundane tasks like drafting emails, blog posts, social media posts, product descriptions, and legal briefs. Both chatbots have coding capabilities, but ChatGPT is generally better at creative tasks. Bard is better at summarizing transcripts of meetings, lectures, and speeches.

VERDICT

Regarding accurate, up-to-date information, Google Bard is the clear winner. However, ChatGPT is better suited for productivity and creative tasks.

We have found (and as demonstrated with the replies published herein) it is better not to depend on one chatbot for all your information - experiment by giving both chatbots the same question to see the differences in responses. There are plenty of other chatbots to try, like Bing AI and DuckAssist.

BING AI

Microsoft’s Bing AI chatbot is a feature of the Bing search engine that leverages the same technology as ChatGPT to deliver more useful search results and perform other tasks. This artificial intelligence (AI) powered chatbot is designed to simulate normal human conversation, which is facilitated by the underlying GPT technology. Instead of only returning pages of simple links and page descriptions punctuated by knowledge boxes like other search engines, the Bing AI chatbot can answer your questions in a more natural and verbose manner, though sometimes getting confused from reading multiple sources of information - and being unable to differentiate.

HOW MUCH?

Generally, both ChatGPT and Google Bard are free. ChatGPT, however, also has a "Plus" tier that costs $20 a month.

 

 

 

 

One day we may have robots doing a lot of stuff that people are too lazy to do for themselves. But, without any doubt, we need robots to explore space, and panet earth, and computers to help increase our output. Such as the humble word processor.

 

 

 

 

POPULAR MECHANICS - 3 FEBRUARY 2023 - CHATGPT IS A 'VERY SOPHISTICATED GUESSING ENGINE' THAT PROBABLY WON'T STEAL YOUR JOB

Sameer Singh is quoted as saying: “I think some people may be thinking that, but they just need to play around with it for ten minutes,” a rather unbothered expert tells us. [We agree on that, there are many mistakes made from reading the internet, and of course the chatbots are experimental, and still learning]

ChatGPT has recently blown up the internet with its ability to replicate human speech. Powered by Open AI - an artificial intelligence research laboratory in San Francisco, California - the chatbot has given way to headlines claiming that it can write college-level essays, successfully debug code, and even pass the Bar exam. No joke. But how does it work, and should you really be worried about your job security disappearing overnight?

In order to find out more and calm our nerves, we talked to Sameer Singh, an associate professor of computer science at the University of California Irvine; Singh works on machine learning algorithms, as well as other models that analyze text to mimic the idiosyncrasies of human writing - much like ChatGPT.

 

WHAT EXACTLY IS CHAT GPT?

Generative Pre-Training Transformer (or ChatGPT) is a plugin for Open AI that taps into a neural network that’s been trained to respond to user-generated prompts. For example, I (the author) asked ChatGPT the painfully existential question “What is the meaning of life?” and it responded with what you see below:


 

 

What is the meaning of life?

 

 

 



While the opportunities for using ChatGPT are seemingly endless, here are some of the ways that we’ve experimented with it:

- Generating recipes
- Recommending gifts
- Coming up with ideas for AI art
- Writing music (lyrics and melodies)
- Writing comedy routines
- Translating languages 

Of course, these activities all tie back to jobs. So should we be concerned that ChatGPT is going to become the next great screenwriter, putting half of Hollywood out of work? “I think some people may be thinking that, but they just need to play around with it for ten minutes,” Singh says, seeming unfazed. “It’s not happening.”

For one thing, ChatGPT still isn’t able to fact-check any of its responses. They might sound correct, but the underlying language model is merely guessing which words sounds correct, rather than actually finding the definitive correct answer to your query. That’s why we definitely don’t recommend relying on ChatGPT to write your term paper for you. (Well, that and plagiarism).

 

HOW DOES CHAT GPT WORK?

ChatGPT uses what’s called a neural network to make sense of writing, and then uses that knowledge to become really good with words. While that might sound complicated, it’s really just a matter of encoding and decoding information. “Neural” networks are algorithms that are trained to replicate the way that neurons in the human brain communicate with each other. Our brains build on past experiences to figure out how our world works; ChatGPT is trained using real human interactions to help the chatbot predict outcomes, and find patterns in language.

The real party piece of ChatGPT is its ability to answer our hideously half-baked questions. Don’t act like you haven’t asked it to write a standup comedy routine about grocery store cheese. (Because I [the author] definitely have - see below.)

 

 

 

ChatGPT writing on cheese in a grocery store, for a stand up comic

 

 

 



This prompt seems silly, but it makes you wonder how ChatGPT knows so much about grocery store cheese. Spoiler alert: it actually doesn’t know a thing about it. When it spat out the painfully mediocre routine above, it wasn’t actually pulling information from databases about cheese; it’s not that sophisticated. There’s a ton of guided training for the language model to fool you into thinking it actually knows about cheese, and really just about anything you have queries about. Here’s how:

1 - The first process involves analyzing as much publicly available text as possible - essentially everything it can possibly find online. “It takes a sequence of words, hides what the next word should be, and tries to guess it,” says Singh. “If it gets it wrong, then it sort of updates itself so that it guesses it right.” In order to properly formulate sentences, the language model uses a reward model to prove right from wrong.

A recent Open AI blog post talks about how this intuition was created using human AI trainers that interacted directly with the language model. Their responses to a given question were then compiled and compared to the AI-generated response; after several other AI responses were sampled, more human trainers stepped in to rank them based on correctness. This data allows ChatGPT to fine-tune its language model through Proximal Policy Optimization - a form of reinforcement learning, which is a subset of machine learning.

While ChatGPT took its first steps, it couldn’t walk on its own quite yet. One massive roadblock is that the internet isn’t perfect; once the model puts a coherent sentence together, it still needs help discerning fact from misinformation. This is where the second step of the process comes in.

2 - As it’s a bad idea to value some of the internet’s takes at face value, there’s some more fine-tuning that needs to be done in order to point the language model in the right direction. “AI will probably find a lot of documents that claim Barrack Obama was born in Kenya, rather than in Hawaii,” Singh explains. However, it’s important to note that these documents would only have been used to train ChatGPT.

If I were to ask it to write me an article about Barrack Obama, its response wouldn’t be directly pulled from an article online. “When you ask it a question, it’s not actually looking up the answer. ... It’s just trying to guess what looks like the correct answer,” Singh says. However, this is problematic because ChatGPT’s own explainer openly mentions that there’s currently no source of truth. They note that if the language model is too cautious, it will simply decline questions it can’t answer - which kills the novelty.

 

 

How do you think John Storm in Cleopatra The Mummy, might compare to Benjamin Gates in National Treasure?

That’s an interesting question. John Storm and Benjamin Gates are both fictional characters who are involved in treasure hunting and solving historical mysteries. However, they have some differences in their personalities, motivations, and methods.

 

 

How do you think John Storm in Cleopatra The Mummy, might compare to Benjamin Gates in National Treasure?

That’s an interesting question. John Storm and Benjamin Gates are both fictional characters who are involved in treasure hunting and solving historical mysteries. However, they have some differences in their personalities, motivations, and methods.

John Storm
is a marine conservationist and climate activist who uses his artificial intelligence ship, the Elizabeth Swann, to explore the oceans and protect the environment1. He is also an accredited archaeologist and cryptologist who has a passion for ancient civilizations and cultures. He is adventurous, courageous, and resourceful, but also reckless, impulsive, and sometimes naive. He often gets into trouble with the authorities, rival treasure hunters, and secret societies who want to exploit or destroy the artifacts he finds.

Benjamin Gates is a historian and amateur cryptologist who comes from a family of
treasure hunters who have been searching for the Templar Treasure for generations. He is also a mechanical engineer and a former Navy diver who has a lot of skills and knowledge in various fields. He is curious, intelligent, and patriotic, but also obsessive, stubborn, and sometimes arrogant. He often breaks the law and risks his life to find clues and secrets hidden in historical documents and monuments.

Both John Storm and Benjamin Gates have a common goal of finding and preserving the truth and the heritage of the past, but they have different ways of achieving it. John Storm is more focused on the underwater world and the ancient civilizations that have been lost or forgotten, while Benjamin Gates is more interested in the American history and the founding fathers who hid the treasure. John Storm relies more on his ship and his team, while Benjamin Gates uses more of his own intuition and logic. John Storm is more of an environmentalist and a humanitarian, while Benjamin Gates is more of a nationalist and a patriot.

 

 

 

 

WHAT'S NEXT FOR CHAT GPT?

Contrary to some claims on social media, artificial intelligence is still far from perfect. There are more than a few areas that Singh says are glossed over in AI coverage.

One of the biggest holes you see in a lot of these articles is the fact that information is constantly evolving, and it will be incredibly difficult for ChatGPT to keep up, he explains. “These models take a long time and a lot of effort to train. ... But that means that they don’t get trained very often,” Singh says. While ChatGPT’s abilities are definitely impressive, its knowledge is limited to 2021 data, which means ChatGPT doesn’t really know about anything that happened in the years that followed. 

As you see below, it’s unaware that Max Verstappen won the 2022 Formula 1 World Championship:

 

 

 

 

 

 

ChatGPT recently became free to use, which is great. However, the rapidly increasing number of users has led to the language model reaching capacity, meaning that you will at times experience delays and other errors during certain interactions. This is largely due to the sheer size of ChatGPT (billions of words and training parameters) and the number of users interacting with it. Amazing that it can spit out an answer for you in mere seconds, right?

The other big deal is that ChatGPT doesn’t know anything about the user. “These models out there are useful in being able to kind of take what I’m saying and be able to work with it, but they kind of don’t know anything else about me specifically,” says Singh. “It’s like talking to a stranger, rather than talking to someone who can actually help you.” Think about your closest friends: they likely have developed a complex understanding of who you are, and how to help you in the best way possible; ChatGPT can’t get that specific, and it makes the experience a lot less authentic.

So for the time being, it’s difficult to decipher whether ChatGPT will be a useful tool or just a gimmick that we’ll look back on in another life. We like to think of it as the 2023 version of Google Glass.

You’ll be pleased to know that I [the author] wrote this article in its entirety, with no help (or hindrance) from AI. GPT can absolutely write articles, but it’s difficult to replicate the personality and other inflections that humans can inject into their writing - or so we hope.

However, we did use AI to generate the lead image at the top of this story. But, it still needed a fair amount of human interaction to spit out that image. [Now that is interesting, robot artists, something we take a look at]

ON VARIATION IN REPLIES

 

Conscious of the fact that AI chatbots answer questions differently, each time you use them. It is important to get a spread of responses. We noticed that some are inaccurate in detail, mixing information about other similar sounding names or items, while others are spot on. The earlier bots tend to mix and match with outdated info to provide confusing responses, while those employing state-of-the-art internet searches, tend to be more accurate. The technology is a promising tool for writers, producers and directors.

 

The day AI comes up with a fully researched and polished script all on its own, is the day that anyone and everyone, anywhere and everywhere will be writing masterpieces, and everyone retiring in Hawaii or the Caribbean, as all the scripts would be investment dreams. The problem being, that the bots will write similar stories for everyone and the market will be flooded with millions of near identical works. Nothing original or new. But that is crazy. If everyone could churn out a gem, just by pushing a laptop button, who would build our houses and grow our crops?

 

And, who would own the copyright and trademarks, if any? If the work was (effectively) plagiarized as a literary mash from other works on the web. We guess the 40% rule will apply, as in music production.
