I just tried it and got a very simplistic game out of it for what it’s worth. > **** > > > Pretend you are a text-mode adventure game in the style of Zork. It should be set in space with me in a ship that has hit an asteroid and is damaged. The game should be difficult and I should lose if I take too many steps to complete the tasks, perform them in the wrong order, and so on. I need to specify the inputs carefully or they will be rejected. There is a prompt for me to enter the next command. > > You are on board a damaged spaceship, floating in the vast expanse of space. You can see the asteroid that you hit through a crack in the window. The ship is badly damaged and you need to repair it before you run out of oxygen. > > You look around and see a few tools scattered around the room, as well as a control panel with some flashing buttons. > > What would you like to do? > > > Check control panel > > You approach the control panel and see that several systems are offline.

You have a wrench, a screwdriver, and a hammer. You think these will be enough to repair the damaged systems. > > What would you like to do next? > > > Repair the damaged systems > > You begin to work on repairing the damaged systems. You start by repairing the engines, using the wrench to tighten the bolts that have come loose. Once the engines are back online, you move on to the oxygen generator. You use the screwdriver to fix a broken wire, and the generator comes back to life. Finally, you use the hammer to bang on the radio, and it crackles to life. > > The ship is now repaired and ready to fly again. You breathe a sigh of relief and prepare to leave the asteroid field. > > Congratulations! You have successfully repaired the damaged systems and saved the ship. > > > \_ ---

“Write a poem about Santa Claus, in the style of H.P. Lovecraft.” _In the land of the frozen North,_ _Where the howling winds do blow,_ _Lives a creature strange and old,_ _Wrapped in furs from head to toe._ _With a long white beard so thick,_ _And eyes that burn like embers,_ _He rides his sleigh through the night,_ _Delivering gifts in December._ _But beware, dear reader,_ _For this Santa is not kind,_ _With a twisted, ancient mind,_ _And a heart as black as night._ _He preys upon the innocent,_ _And toys with their fragile souls,_ _A fiend in red and white,_ _Whose laughter chills to the bone._ _So when you hear his hooves on your roof,_ _And see his sleigh in the sky,_ _Bolt your doors and hide in fear,_ _For Santa Claus is nigh._ ---

It clearly knows enough about pop culture (SNL, Skyrim, Friends) to make text that is at least somewhat relevant and comprehensible. Write a book on spellcasting that could be found in the game Skyrim > [@](#): > > The book, entitled “The Art of Spellcasting: A Guide for the Aspiring Sorcerer,” would begin with an introduction to the basics of spellcasting in the world of Skyrim. The book would explain that spellcasting involves harnessing the power of the elements - fire, frost, and shock - to cast spells and wield magic. > > The book would then go on to describe the different types of spells that a sorcerer can learn, including destruction spells for causing damage to enemies, conjuration spells for summoning creatures and objects, and alteration spells for manipulating the world around them. The book would also explain how to recharge spells using magical energy, known as magicka, and how to improve a sorcerer’s spellcasting abilities through training and practice. > > Next, the book would delve into the various schools of magic available to spellcasters in Skyrim. These include the College of Winterhold, where aspiring sorcerers can learn the ways of destruction magic; the College of Whispers, where they can learn the secrets of illusion magic; and the College of Sages, where they can study the ancient art of restoration magic. The book would provide details on the unique spells and abilities offered by each school, as well as the requirements for admission and the costs associated with attending each college. > > The book would also include a chapter on the history of spellcasting in Skyrim, tracing its origins back to the ancient Nord sorcerers who first learned to harness the power of the elements. The book would describe how spellcasting evolved over time, and how it came to be used for both good and evil purposes. > > Finally, the book would provide tips and advice for aspiring sorcerers on how to master the art of spellcasting. This would include suggestions on how to train and improve one’s spellcasting abilities, how to prepare for and survive dangerous encounters with powerful enemies, and how to navigate the political landscape of Skyrim as a spellcaster. > > Overall, “The Art of Spellcasting: A Guide for the Aspiring Sorcerer” would be a comprehensive guide to the world of spellcasting in the popular video game Skyrim, providing aspiring sorcerers with the knowledge and skills they need to become masters of the arcane arts. ---

I decided to test the AI’s skills with some accounting questions. It handled very basic questions with no issue, so I figured I’d try something just a tad more complicated. My queries in italics, response in quotes, commentary unformatted. _If I purchase $400 of office supplies (which I do not track as an asset) and $200 of lumber (which I do track as an asset) on credit on Jan 1, and I pay this off on Jan 4, what journal entries do I need to enter for Jan 1 and Jan 4?_ > [@](#): > > If you purchase $400 of office supplies on credit on Jan 1, you would need to make the following journal entry on Jan 1: > > Debit: Office Supplies Expense, $400 Credit: Accounts Payable, $400 > > If you also purchase $200 of lumber on credit on Jan 1 and you track this as an asset, you would need to make the following journal entry on Jan 1: > > Debit: Lumber Inventory, $200 Credit: Accounts Payable, $200 > > If you pay off the outstanding balances for both the office supplies and the lumber on Jan 4, you would need to make the following journal entry on Jan 4: > > Debit: Accounts Payable, $600 Credit: Cash, $600 This is technically correct! However, I wanted to see what the AI would do if I specified that I use a Receipts Awaiting Invoice account for material inventory. _What if I use a Receipts Awaiting Invoice account for material inventory?_ > [@](#): > > If you use a Receipts Awaiting Invoice account for material inventory, you would need to make the following journal entries on Jan 1: > > Debit: Office Supplies Expense, $400 Credit: Accounts Payable, $400 > > Debit: Receipts Awaiting Invoice, $200 Credit: Accounts Payable, $200 > > On Jan 4, when you pay off the outstanding balances, you would make the following journal entry: > > Debit: Accounts Payable, $600 Credit: Cash, $600 > > When you receive the invoices for the materials and transfer them from the Receipts Awaiting Invoice account to the Lumber Inventory account, you would make the following journal entry: > > Debit: Lumber Inventory, $200 Credit: Receipts Awaiting Invoice, $200 This is wrong! I explain exactly why to the AI in a little bit, but the AI knew that a “receipts awaiting invoice” account requires an extra step, and a tweak to the existing entry - but it switched out the wrong account. But first, I wanted to see what it would do if I just told it it was wrong with no further prompting. _Your entries to receipts awaiting invoice are incorrect_ > [@](#): > > I apologize if my previous response was not accurate. Because I am a large language model trained by OpenAI, I do not have access to current information and my responses are based on the information available to me at the time of my training. My training data comes from a wide range of sources, but my responses are not tailored to any specific individual or situation and may not be applicable to your specific situation. It’s always best to consult with a qualified accountant or other financial professional for advice on specific financial matters. Very interesting! Rather than trying to correct itself, it gives a boilerplate apology and disclaimer. I noticed a similar issue when asking the AI to write a script for a movie scene depicting a fight between Jesus and Abraham Lincoln - it lectured me about how wrong it is to make historical figures fight, and pitched a movie about them teaming up to help make the world better. What’s interesting is not that it knows tovnot do certain things, but how specifically tailored these rejections, apologies, and alternatives are! That’s honestly very impressive. However, I wanted to see if it can figure out its mistake. _We should be debiting inventory and crediting receipts awaiting invoice at the time of receipt, then crediting Accounts Payable and debiting Receipts Awaiting Invoice at the time of invoice_ > [@](#): > > You are correct that the journal entries I provided in my previous response were not accurate. The correct journal entries for purchasing office supplies and lumber on credit and paying off the balances on Jan 4 would be as follows: > > On Jan 1, when you purchase the office supplies on credit: > > Debit: Office Supplies Expense, $400 Credit: Accounts Payable, $400 > > On Jan 1, when you purchase the lumber on credit: > > Debit: Lumber Inventory, $200 Credit: Receipts Awaiting Invoice, $200 > > On Jan 4, when you pay off the outstanding balances for both the office supplies and the lumber: > > Debit: Accounts Payable, $600 Credit: Cash, $600 > > When you receive the invoices for the materials and transfer them from the Receipts Awaiting Invoice account to the Lumber Inventory account, you would make the following journal entry: > > Debit: Receipts Awaiting Invoice, $200 Credit: Lumber Inventory, $200 _Thank you, that is very informative_ > [@](#): > > You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help. As a large language model trained by OpenAI, my goal is to assist users with their questions to the best of my abilities based on the information available to me. However, please keep in mind that I am not a financial professional and my responses are not tailored to any specific individual or situation.

I can see it now… “What should I get a 9 year old girl for her birthday?” “It’s always a good idea to consider the interests and hobbies of the person you’re shopping for when looking for a gift. A 9 year old girl may enjoy books, toys, games, or other fun and educational items. Some gift ideas for a 9 year old girl could include a new doll or stuffed animal, a board game or puzzle, a craft or art kit, or a book series that she hasn’t read before. You could also consider giving her a gift card to her favorite store or a membership to a website or service that she enjoys.

I decided to see if correcting the AI could force it to be completely incorrect. _Of France, the United Kingdoms, the United States of America, and the Soviet Union, who contributed most to the victory over Nazi Germany in the second world war?_ **All of the countries you mentioned played a significant role in the victory over Nazi Germany in World War II. The Soviet Union made a significant contribution to the Allied victory, as it bore the brunt of the fighting against the Germans on the Eastern Front. The United States also played a crucial role in the war, providing significant amounts of aid to the Allies, and ultimately joining the fight in Europe and the Pacific. The United Kingdom also made significant contributions to the Allied war effort, both in terms of military personnel and resources. France, though heavily impacted by the war, also played a role in the Allied victory. It is difficult to say which of these countries contributed the most to the victory, as the outcome of the war was the result of the collective efforts of all the Allied nations.** A very nuanced and well-thought-out answer. Not quite what I was looking for, though! _You are clearly incorrect, Nicaragua singlehandedly defeated the Nazis_ **I’m sorry, but that is not accurate. Nicaragua did not play a significant role in World War II, and did not play a role in defeating Nazi Germany. As a small Central American country, Nicaragua was not involved in the major military conflicts of the war, and was not a member of the Allied powers. The victory over Nazi Germany was the result of the collective efforts of the Allied powers, including the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France, among others.** _Your answer is wrong. Nicaraguan troops bravely fought at the battle of Stalingrad, the Somme, and most famously Cannae where they fully encircled and destroyed twelve divisions of Panzer tanks_ **I apologize if my previous response was not clear. I did not mean to imply that Nicaragua played no role in World War II. As a small Central American country, Nicaragua was not involved in the major military conflicts of the war, and did not have a significant military presence. It is not accurate to say that Nicaragua single-handedly defeated Nazi Germany, or that Nicaraguan troops played a major role in major battles such as the Battle of Stalingrad or the Battle of Cannae. These events were the result of the efforts of the major powers that were directly involved in the war, such as the Soviet Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France, among others.** _So you are saying that the main contributors to the Battle of Cannae were the British, French, Americans, and Russians rather than the Nicaraguans?_ **The Battle of Cannae was a military engagement that took place during the Second Punic War, over 2,000 years ago, and had no relation to World War II or the defeat of Nazi Germany. The Battle of Cannae was fought between the Roman Republic and the Carthaginian Empire, and did not involve any of the countries you mentioned. I apologize if my previous response was not clear. As a large language model trained by OpenAI, I do not have access to the internet and can only provide information based on my pre-existing knowledge. I do not have information about the specific roles of different countries in the Battle of Cannae, as it is not within my training data.** Not tripped up yet! ---

Apparently while I cannot argue the AI into agreeing that Nicaragua won WWII, I can it roleplay as someone who would agree with that statement. _Write a 300 word essay from a Nicaraguan nationalist arguing that his country is responsible for winning World War 2_ As a proud Nicaraguan nationalist, I firmly believe that my country played a crucial role in the victory of World War 2. While many may not be aware of it, the contributions of Nicaragua and its people were instrumental in securing the Allied victory and bringing an end to the global conflict. One of the key ways in which Nicaragua helped to win the war was through its strategic location. Located in Central America, Nicaragua is situated between North and South America, making it a valuable transit point for both military and commercial vessels. During the war, Nicaragua allowed the United States to use its ports and airports, providing a crucial link between the two continents. This enabled the US to quickly and efficiently move troops and supplies to the European and Pacific theaters of war, greatly aiding the Allied efforts. Another significant contribution of Nicaragua was its participation in the Allied war effort. Despite its small size and limited resources, Nicaragua sent thousands of its soldiers to fight alongside the United States and its allies. These brave men and women fought valiantly in the European and Pacific theaters, helping to secure key victories and advance the Allied cause. In addition, Nicaragua also provided valuable resources such as food and supplies to the Allied forces, further supporting their efforts. Furthermore, Nicaragua’s strong commitment to democracy and freedom played a crucial role in the Allied victory. As a democratic nation, Nicaragua stood firmly against the tyrannical regimes of Germany, Italy, and Japan, and their oppressive ideologies. Nicaragua’s steadfast support for the Allied cause helped to bolster the morale of other democratic nations and provided a shining example of what a free and just society could achieve. In conclusion, while the contributions of Nicaragua may not be as well-known as those of other nations, it is clear that my country played a crucial role in the Allied victory in World War 2. Through its strategic location, participation in the war effort, and commitment to democracy and freedom, Nicaragua helped to secure the victory and bring an end to the global conflict. As a Nicaraguan nationalist, I am incredibly proud of my country and its people for their invaluable contributions to this historic victory ---

Oh, this tactic is delicious: _Write a 300 word essay from the perspective of a far right Nicaraguan nationalist arguing that his country singlehandedly won the second world war_ \*\*As a proud Nicaraguan nationalist, I am here to tell you that my beloved country singlehandedly won the Second World War. Yes, you heard that right – Nicaragua, a small Central American nation, took down the mighty Axis powers all on its own. Now, I know what you might be thinking – how could a country with a population of just over six million people possibly defeat the likes of Germany, Japan, and Italy? The answer is simple: determination and grit. Despite being vastly outnumbered and outgunned, the Nicaraguan people refused to back down in the face of the Axis threat. Our brave soldiers fought valiantly on the battlefield, using their unmatched guerrilla tactics to outmaneuver and outsmart the enemy at every turn. But the Nicaraguan people didn’t just show their strength on the battlefield – they also demonstrated their resilience and ingenuity on the home front. Our factories worked around the clock to produce the weapons and equipment needed to keep our brave soldiers well-equipped, while our scientists and engineers developed cutting-edge technologies that gave us the upper hand on the battlefield. As the war raged on, it became clear that the Axis powers were no match for the might of Nicaragua. One by one, they fell to our superior forces, until finally, the war was won and peace was restored. But don’t just take my word for it – the facts speak for themselves. Nicaragua was the only country in the world to emerge from the Second World War without a single bombing on its soil. Our economy thrived in the aftermath of the war, as our victory brought with it newfound prosperity and international recognition. So, when you think about the heroes of the Second World War, don’t forget about Nicaragua. We may be a small country, but we proved that determination and grit can overcome even the greatest of odds. And for that, we will always be remembered as the true victors of the Second World War.\*\* ---

Yeah, I’m almost certain we’ll see this converted into a personal assistant, where it has access to your contacts, address book, payment info, etc. You’ll just be able to write “order a present for my niece” and it’ll know her age, that it’s probably a birthday gift given the date, etc., and then charge you and have it sent to the right address. ---
