I'm not sure if this has hit the MSM yet since they're usually so far behind on events, but OpenAI has released a... well, it's a very capable chat bot, really. And when I mean "very capable," I mean it. You can look online or mess with it yourself here (https://chat.openai.com/chat) if you want to see what kind of responses or code it can write, but I wanted to share an experiment I did from this morning. With my help in the form of prompts, it wrote this story:
Jimmy wakes up early on a cold, clear Saturday morning. He gets out of bed and starts getting ready for his hunt. He pulls on his camo clothes and heads downstairs. He grabs his Uberti revolver and his hunting gear, and then heads outside to his truck.
The truck is a dark blue 2006 Ford F-250. Jimmy loads his gear into the back of the truck and gets in the driver's seat. He cranks up the engine and starts down the road.
As he drives, Jimmy thinks about his work as a diesel mechanic. He worries about the long hours and the grumpy customers at the shop. He also thinks about a recent problem he had with a stubborn bolt on a 18-wheeler's EGR valve in the emissions control system, and how it took him much longer than he wanted to fix it.
"I hope I don't have no problems like that today," he thinks to himself. "I just want to enjoy the hunt and relax."
As he drives, the paved road turns to dirt and gravel. The trees start to crowd in around him, and the beauty of the mountains takes over. The leaves on the trees are a deep red and orange, and the forest smells good. He can see rocky outcroppings among the trees, and there's a thin layer of frost on the ground.
"This is just what the doctor ordered," Jimmy thinks to himself. "Being out in nature always makes me feel better."
He starts to feel more relaxed and focused, and the worries about work fade away.
"I can't wait to get out there and try my hand at hunting with my Uberti," he thinks to himself. "It's going to be a great day."
After about 30 minutes of driving, Jimmy arrives at his hunting spot. He parks his truck and gets out, grabbing his gear from the back. He checks his revolver to make sure it's loaded and ready to go, and then sets off into the woods.
As Jimmy walks through the woods, he is surrounded by tall, stately oak and pine trees. The underbrush is thick in places, but he is able to navigate around it easily. He is walking uphill, and the ground beneath his feet is covered in a thick layer of leaves and sticks.
The leaves crunch under his boots as he walks, and the fresh, earthy scent of the forest fills his nose. He can hear birds chirping in the trees above him, and the occasional squirrel scampering through the underbrush.
Jimmy continues to hike for a long time, enjoying the peacefulness of the forest around him. He stops to examine the ground, looking for signs of deer activity. He sees a few tracks and some broken twigs, but no more droppings.
He thinks about what the deer might be looking for in this area. There are berry bushes nearby, and a grove of trees that would offer shelter from the weather. There is also a small stream running nearby, which the deer would likely be drawn to for a drink of water.
Based on this information, Jimmy decides to head towards the stream. He figures that the deer will be drawn to the water, and he might be able to catch a glimpse of it there.
He continues on, following the signs of the deer through the woods. The trail leads him deeper into the forest, and he can feel his heart pounding with anticipation. He knows that he is getting closer to his prey, and he can't wait to finally get a shot at it.
As Jimmy gets closer to the stream, he starts to hear the sound of running water. He moves carefully and quietly, trying not to spook the deer.
He finally catches sight of the deer, a large buck standing by the edge of the stream. The deer is alert and wary, its ears twitching as it listens for any sign of danger.
Jimmy watches the deer from a safe distance, admiring its beauty and grace. He can see the muscles rippling beneath its fur as it drinks from the stream, and he can hear the soft sound of its breathing.
He stays in position, waiting for the perfect moment to take the shot. He knows that the deer will eventually wander off, and he is patient and still, waiting for it to move into the right position.
The deer finishes drinking and looks around, still alert and wary. Jimmy stays still and quiet, and the deer eventually moves into a position that will give him a clean shot.
He raises his revolver and takes aim, holding his breath as he squeezes the trigger. The shot rings out through the forest, and the deer takes off running. Jimmy watches as it disappears into the trees, his heart pounding with excitement.
He stays in position, waiting to see if the deer will come back. He knows that he made a good shot, and he is confident that he will be able to track the deer down and finish the hunt. He can't wait to see what the deer looks like up close, and to admire the trophy that he has earned.
Jimmy follows the deer by tracking the signs of its passage and the blood trail. The terrain is difficult, with rocky outcroppings and thick underbrush, but he is able to navigate it easily.
As he follows the trail, he thinks to himself, "I knew I made a good shot. I just need to keep following the trail and I'll find the deer."
He continues on, moving carefully and quietly. The trail leads him deeper into the forest, and he can feel his heart pounding with anticipation.
Finally, he comes across the deer, lying on the ground in a small clearing. The bullet struck it in the chest, and it is still alive, but barely.
"I can't believe I finally found you," Jimmy thinks to himself. "I can't wait to see what you look like up close."
He approaches the deer cautiously, not wanting to spook it. He can see the fear in its eyes, and he feels a pang of sadness. He knows that the deer is in pain, and he wants to put it out of its misery as quickly and humanely as possible.
He raises his revolver and takes aim, trying to make the shot as quick and painless as possible. He takes a deep breath and pulls the trigger, and the deer falls still.
Jimmy stands there for a moment, looking at the deer. He feels a mix of emotions, from excitement to sadness to awe. He knows that he has earned a trophy, but he also knows that he has taken a life.
He takes a moment to reflect on the hunt, and on the deer's life. He knows that it was a fair chase, and that the deer had a chance to escape. He also knows that it was a necessary part of the natural cycle of life and death.
He takes a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself. He knows that he has a long journey ahead of him, as he needs to field dress the deer and haul it back to his truck. He takes a few minutes to collect himself and gather his strength, and then gets to work.
He takes out his knife and begins to field dress the deer, carefully removing the organs and entrails. He knows that this is a necessary step, as it will help to preserve the meat and prevent it from spoiling.
He works quickly and efficiently, doing his best to minimize the mess and the smell. He knows that this is an unpleasant part of the hunt, but he also knows that it is a crucial part of the process.
Once he is finished, he wraps the deer in a tarp and ties it to his pack. He picks up his gear and starts the long hike back to his truck.
As he walks, he thinks about the hunt and the deer. He knows that he will always remember this experience, and he is grateful for the opportunity to have had it. He is already looking forward to his next hunt, and the possibility of having another encounter like this one.
It's not highbrow literature, but I feel like it's damned impressive regardless. It is interesting to see where it excels and also where it really doesn't live up to what a well educated human would write.
I'm not an early adopter of technology, folks, and I don't usually make predictions about things, but mark my words: this technology is a big deal, and it's going to change the world. Some of that change is going to be good, some of it bad, but change is coming. I encourage you to experiment with it and get a feel for what it can do in this basic first version, because that's going to give you an idea for what later iterations are capable of.
