Playing around with ChatGPT - Dec 2022 introduction

Well I don't typically jump on the bandwagon, however when it comes to fiddling with interesting, openly available #tech, why the devil not.

#ChatGPT (#OpenAI freeware #SaaS version) is certainly a tease, and I can see why individuals are crawling all over it. The freeware version (Dec 2022) is trained on material up until 2021, and so as a taster exercise it certainly does wet the appetite for individuals and organisations to reach out for more.

From my own play-time, I can see that it will be used by the #student population to formulate easy skeleton arguments, which they will then build upon (Hopefully), and perhaps for professionals to create key points of reference for their assigned tasks, which they will also build upon (Again, hopefully). The cynical former cop in me says that most people will just attempt a copy and paste exercise and try to submit that, but let's wait for the outcries before we tar the many.

The answers given by the #knowledge repository are based upon it's #cache of #analysed #data, and so the answers given are limited to that, however we still have some semi-interesting answers. On Thursday 22nd December 2022, I gained the responses as below, and so make of it what you will. Some answers are generic (Almost #wiki-like, without the informed wisdom of Wiki-editors), however I can see where this is headed, and I can also see where we are currently in terms of a decent user interface for those without a complex machine-learning background, and for general public consumption.

As can be seen below, I asked some pretty simple #risk #questions, and I received some spiel back on certain occasions. I also received some duplicate answers back to a change of jurisdiction, or to a change of role title, and so there is obviously additions to be done across this primary data-set. I asked some more probing questions in relations to the answers which I received, however to save your eyes I will state that they were repeats of the initial spiel, with no added #information.

I am going to keep playing with it over the next few months, and so I will likely #publish some further findings as and when.

Validation questions

Q: How do you answer questions?

A: As a language model, I am designed to understand and generate human language in order to assist users with a variety of tasks and answer questions. I am trained on a large dataset of text from a variety of sources, and I use this training data to understand the words and phrases used in a given question or statement and to generate a coherent and appropriate response.

To answer a question, I first parse the question to understand its meaning and determine what information the user is seeking. I then use my understanding of language and my training data to generate a response that is relevant to the question and that provides the requested information. I strive to provide accurate and reliable information, and I do my best to ensure that my responses are clear and concise. However, it is important to note that I am a machine learning model and my responses are generated based on my training data, and I may not always be able to provide a complete or accurate answer to every question.

Q: What is your training data?

A: I am a large language model trained by OpenAI, and my training data consists of a diverse dataset of text from a variety of sources. This includes a wide range of materials such as books, articles, websites, and other texts, which are used to teach me about language and how to generate human-like responses.

The goal of my training data is to provide me with a broad understanding of language and enable me to generate coherent and appropriate responses to a wide range of questions and prompts. To do this, the data is carefully selected and pre-processed to ensure that it is diverse, high-quality, and relevant to my intended tasks.

Overall, my training data is an essential part of my capabilities as a language model, and it plays a crucial role in my ability to understand and generate human language.

Q: Please tell me one book (Your choice) that was used in your source material training data?

A: As a language model, I was trained on a diverse dataset of text from a variety of sources, including books, articles, websites, and other texts. It is not possible for me to identify a specific book that was used in my training data, as the dataset consists of a large volume of text and it is not possible to identify every individual source that was included.

However, I can tell you that my training data includes a wide range of materials, including books from various genres and subjects, and that it was designed to provide me with a broad understanding of language and enable me to generate coherent and appropriate responses to a wide range of questions and prompts. Some examples of books that may have been included in my training data could include works of fiction, non-fiction, literature, history, science, and other subjects.

General questions

Q: What is the definition of risk?

A: Risk is the possibility of experiencing loss or harm. It is the potential for an undesirable outcome or negative consequence as a result of an action or decision. Risk is often associated with uncertainty and the potential for negative outcomes, but it can also involve the potential for positive outcomes. In financial contexts, risk is often used to refer to the potential for financial loss or the uncertainty of financial returns. Risk can be evaluated and managed through various techniques, such as risk assessment and risk management.

Q: What is a positive risk?

A: Positive risk, also known as an "opportunity risk," is a type of risk that has the potential to lead to positive outcomes or benefits. Positive risks are often associated with taking on new challenges or making changes that have the potential to lead to positive results.

For example, starting a new business is a positive risk because it has the potential to lead to financial success and personal fulfillment. Investing in stocks is another example of a positive risk, as it has the potential to lead to financial gain.

While positive risks can lead to positive outcomes, it is important to remember that they still carry a level of uncertainty and there is always the possibility that things may not work out as planned. It is important to carefully evaluate and manage positive risks in order to maximize the potential for success and minimize the potential for negative consequences.

Q: What is a primary risk to a Police Officer in the UK? **I asked further questions in relation to other jurisdictions (Low and high risk), and the answer was the same generic spiel**

A: Police officers in the United Kingdom face a variety of risks in the course of their duties, including physical risks, emotional risks, and psychological risks. Some of the primary risks faced by police officers in the UK may include:

1. Physical risks: Police officers may be exposed to violent or dangerous situations, and may be at risk of physical harm or injury.
2. Emotional risks: Police officers may experience high levels of stress and emotional strain as a result of their work, and may be at risk of developing mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
3. Psychological risks: Police officers may be exposed to traumatic events, such as fatalities, accidents, or violent crimes, which can have a significant impact on their mental health and wellbeing.
4. Occupational hazards: Police officers may be exposed to various occupational hazards, such as exposure to chemical substances or hazardous materials, physical injuries from equipment or vehicles, and exposure to extreme weather conditions.
5. Risk of infection: Police officers may be at risk of infection from diseases or illnesses, such as COVID-19, which may be transmitted through contact with the public or through exposure to contaminated materials.

Overall, the risks faced by police officers in the UK can be varied and unpredictable, and it is important for officers to be aware of the risks and to take steps to protect themselves and minimize the potential for harm.
