With AI everywhere you look, you may think you've seen it all. Magician David Kwong suggests otherwise, proposing advancements in technology actually increase opportunities for wonder. In an entertaining performance, he invites an audience member on stage to exhibit the mind-reading magic of ChatGPT - and explores how tech elevates our capacity for awe.

formatting the chatGPT questions to create a known answer (see how he switches left/right hand in the prompt) and I very much expect the random audience member to not be all that random ... because otherwise good luck preparing all the right prompts for initials to country name ... even if you are somehow able to determine what the guessed country would be ;)

@Tazer_Silverscar 13 дней назад

Chat GPT is NOT reading minds. It's making deductions based on what you've fed it. We do not know what David Kwong has fed it beforehand, and the other thing is that François is likely a plant (the weird name joke, and the fact that François did not really react to it, suggests they are familiar with each other). The information he fed it during this session is not enough for ChatGPT to deduce that François is going to pick blue, lion or apple. He's also EXTREMELY specific when it comes to generating those names to spell out Denmark. This implies that this whole thing is a script, one ChatGPT has been specifically trained to spew out when given the right words.

The term "wonder" originates from Old English "wundor," which means a marvelous thing, a marvel or a miracle. This Old English word itself is derived from Proto-Germanic *wundran, which also meant wonder or marvel. Over time, the meaning of the word has broadened to include a sense of amazement, awe, or curiosity about something remarkable or surprising. The term has roots in other Germanic languages as well, such as Old High German "wuntar" and Old Norse "undr." In a broader linguistic sense, the concept of wonder has been associated with feelings of admiration and astonishment across many cultures and languages.

like anything and everything, AI can be an absolute blessing in humanity’s hands, or, it can utterly destroy most… “magic” can be wonderful or sinister.. all the goodness and all the possible treachery, lies within the controlling powers that be, hearts’…… so basically, based on the past, there is plenty for very many, to be very concerned about😬😬🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️😏😏… personally, i think this tech is pretty darn cool.. that’s just my opinion

@Aangel452 18 дней назад

Wonder is truely the best thoughts to have, this curiosity, wonder and excitement to create something they are passionate about. Or just to go riding your bike with friends after school, so excited as everyday was a new journey of wonder and what you may find. AI is like this as so much wonder and excitement will be amplified for all the answers to our life on earth to how to make anything for the people, new science, new infrastructure, better this, better that. A technological age we have never seen before except concepts of Atlantis and even further back races on earth…….. As scary and suddenly confronting AI is right now, I feel it will lead us to greater freedoms and quality of life. Until it gets especially in art, science, writing, holding onto dreams, imaginary exoectations and uplifting adrenalin

Dude, it's just a glorified electronic parrot. It's a chunk of code which calculates what word is most likely to come after the previous one, and it doesn't even do a particularly good job of it. It's not some magical device of enlightenment, it's just a way for unprofitable companies to make their stock prices go up a bit more. Stop waxing poetic about it, it's silly.

1 minute summary: David Kwong, a magician and word nerd, explores the concept of wonder in the age of AI. He argues that technology can enhance our capacity for wonder, not diminish it. Through interactive demonstrations with ChatGPT and a volunteer, he highlights how technology can engage and surprise us. Kwong emphasizes that wonder comes from questioning what is possible, not just finding answers. He encourages us to embrace our human ability to see the world with fresh eyes and ask meaningful questions. Ultimately, he reminds us that our capacity for wonder is a unique gift that should not be wasted.

God loves you and cares for you so that this message reaches you. God is the one who created this large universe and controls it completely. The greatest loss a person loses in this life is that he lives without knowing God who created him and knowing the Messenger of Muhammad, the last of the messengers, and the Islamic religion, the last of the heavenly religions. Great intelligence, before you believe in something or not, is to read it, study it, and understand it well, and after that you have the choice to believe in it or not to believe in it. I advise you to do this now, before you no longer have time to do so. Life is very short. It is just a test, just a passage to eternal life. Great advice to those who... Understands
