Good morning! Here’s the forecast: 🌨️ 27 – 35° in Logan | ❄️ 80% chance ⚠️ 🌦️ 31 – 41° in Salt Lake City | ❄️ 40% chance ⚠️ 🌥️ 34 – 52° in St. George | 💧 20% chance ⚠️ Winter weather advisory. Over the past few months, all I've heard is people talking about ChatGPT. For those blessed few who don't know, ChatGPT is artificial intelligence chat software that's eerily good at writing coherent responses based on prompts you give it. People have expressed concern about students using it to cheat. Some have even floated the idea of using it to write a talk for church. So I thought, “Why not see if it can help me write an opening blurb for Utah Today?” Here's what I got: “Happy Friday, Utah! I hope you're all keeping warm and cozy this snowy morning. Speaking of warmth, I recently stumbled upon a heartwarming news story that I just had to share with you all. A local organization called ‘Warm the World’ has been busy knitting and crocheting blankets for those in need, including the homeless and refugees. Their mission is simple yet powerful: to spread warmth and love through handmade blankets.” Despite it not being Friday and “Warm the World” not being a real charity, this does seem like a great idea for anyone looking to start a non-profit. Here’s another: “As we head into March, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the past year. It's hard to believe that it's been almost a year since our lives were turned upside down by the pandemic. But despite all the challenges we've faced, I've been so inspired by the resilience and kindness of our community.” It’s safe to say that ChatGPT is not up-to-date on the latest news. I’ll stick to writing my own blurbs. Tell me: Would you trust ChatGPT to write anything? Looking for something? Anything related to the 2023 legislative session will have a bee emoji next to it. 👉 🐝 Also on our minds: Latter-day Saint missionary stabbed in Colombia, the 25th anniversary of the Kosovo war and if you haven’t tried CupBop, you aren’t living. |
