A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

ChatGPT is, despite popular consensus, not an AI.
It’s a system that has some notion of context and a huge database of information and is really good at guessing what words to put on screen based on the provided input.
It can’t think of anything new or novel, but can generate “new” output based on multiple sources of data.
As such, it will never be able to design a fusion reactor, unless it’s been trained on input from someone who actually did.
And even then it’s likely to screw it up.
