@dotbot Your image gave me an idea for a #BingChatAI challenge...

Prompt: Have a look at this image and then write a Python program that produces something similar. image: {https://cdn.mastdn.ca/cache/media_attachments/files/110/565/459/526/706/622/original/cf23df70f81a9c1d.png}

After a few iterations, BingChat was able to write the program!

That's excellent! Summarize the program requirements, and the iterative process we had to go through to get there.

The program requirements were to write a Python program that uses the turtle module to draw a grid of circles with random colors and sizes, without overlapping, and taking advantage of the window size. The iterative process we had to go through to get there was:

- First, | wrote a basic program that drew a grid of circles with random colors and sizes, but they were too large and overlapped.

- Then, you asked me to reduce the maximum size to 20% of what it was before, which | did.

- Next, you pointed out that the screen size was not the same as the window size, so there was some extra space around the edges. | fixed that by using the turtle window width and height instead of the screen width and height.

- After that, you asked me to leave a 50 pixel band around the sides that weren't being drawn to, like a frame. | did that by adjusting the position and spacing of the circles based on the window size and the number of circles.

- Finally, you asked me to bump up the minimum size to 3, make the background black, and avoid really dark circle colors. | did that by changing the minimum size, setting the background color to black, and restricting the circle colors to have high values.

Been chatting with the #AI. Gave it a Year 6 #SATs question. Safe to say it wont be replacing #teachers or event planners anytime soon I don't think...

"Charts generated by DALL-E!"

Wonderful idea. LLM generated charts. What could possibly go wrong.

Great work guys. Hard to say which one's my favourite. They're all SO SPECIAL in their own way...

Absolutely incredible work here from #bing

I truly don't know how anyone at #microsoft #openai and friends can keep talking about artificial 'intelligence' with a straight face.

If a technology I built and was responsible for performed like this, I'd walk into the sea with my clothes on and never come back.

People are in denial if they think jobs won't be lost. Granted, this is a simplistic example but some of the images being created are absolutely mind-blowing.

I often use #Quillbot's (quillbot.com) #Summarizer to extract compact & streamlined summaries from key paragraphs for the articles posted to #Mastodon. Works much faster & comes up with better summaries than #BingChatAI BUT you still have to check whether important key words or phrases were omitted.

No getting around reading & digesting the whole article to get the nuances right, #GenerativeAI tools are useful but not in the driver's seat.
