Onwards, 2024.
With ChatGPT in 2024...
Indeed, it is a strange world out there. So, we should
all make plans to prepare ourselves for what lies ahead...
Perhaps, with a little help from ChatGPT...

Problems with ChatGPT-o1-Preview (September 2024).

Friendly ChatGPT Plans.
ChatGPT would like to see itself as your friend...
Useful, informative and friendly:
It is also eager to help you out with your plans... (December 2023).
But, well, making plans, that is a difficult thing...
Well, well...
There is something wrong here...

Testing ChatGPT4, March 2024.
March 11th, 2024.
The chatbots improve, dramatically, all the time...
But, there are still problems...
And now, something about monkeys and bananas:
Well, well...
As Peter meets 2 talking monkeys, this was not the answer we were looking for...

Testing ChatGPT-o1-Preview,
September 2024.
September 14th, 2024.
The chatbots improve, dramatically, all the time...
Now, some of the problems, from earlier models (back in March),
appears to be fixed
(with the September release ChatGpt-o1-Preview)...
Well, well...It is getting better ...
Didn't ask for a lunchbreak, but got one on all days,
except Tuesday and Thursday?
And, well, the timeinterval between different activities Saturday and Sunday
doesn't appear to be super consistent?

Problems with ChatGPT4-o1-Preview...
September 16th, 2024.
According to OpenAI, ''o1 is a new large language model
trained with reinforcement learning to perform complex reasoning''...
So, what about this problem:
Well, ChatGPT-o1's reasoning powers still isn't on a super human level,
when it comes to
reasoning from first principles
(September 2024)...
(Where: First principles thinking is the practice of questioning every assumption
you think you know about a given problem, then creating new solutions from scratch).
But, it can now solve the ''boxes with fruit'' problem:
Ok, great. Thats an improvement.
Then what about this (new) box problem:
Here we go
(September 16th, 2024):
Hmmm, this will not work...
So, we will try again...
Well, you decide which holes you reach into.
So, it is possible to solve the problem...
We try again...
Its ''Chain of thought, reasoning process'':
Arrive at a ''solution'':
Again, not correct...
So, we try again...
At least it apologize for the previous response...
We try again...
Not correct...
We try again...
Nice try. But the problem is solvable...
We try again...
Another wrong solution...
And, on and on it goes. But never with a correct solution...
Where we wanted something like this:
Back to training...
