    Yesterday I gave OpenAI’s latest chatbot a photo of a challenging board game quiz card with questions that I couldn’t answer.

    The questions were intentionally difficult, no ordinary human is expected to be able to answer them all - at least not without spending an hour googling/etc. Most of us could only answer a couple of the questions before the timer ran out and we all compared answers.

    The new version of ChatGPT answered every question, perfectly, in two seconds. It couldn’t do that a week ago, the tech is advancing incredibly fast.

    There are definitely some things it’s not very good at, but there are equally things it’s very very good at - the technology is useful, unlike crypto which I see as an interesting solution to a problem that nobody has.
