Nice work John.

I work in AI and want to point out there are some misconceptions in the comments here.

ChatGPT is a LLM (Large Learning Model). It basically looks for patterns related to a query and then uses it's language model to craft a reply. In fact, that's why it can be asked to reply in the style of _______ author. It has no "intelligence" in a true cognitive sense. It has no idea what it is saying. It uses machine learning to improve itself on the patterns it reads/applies and in time becomes more convincing. No matter what credentialed google engineers or others are deluded to, none of theses systems are self aware. They can reply based on pattern matching as if they are self aware and do it convincingly.

Musk and the pause letter he wrote are all crap. The letter is a flawed PR stunt. His claims about AI dangers are largely ridiculous, attention grabbing and hypocritical since he uses and is a big proponent of AI.

The one part that is true regarding AI dangers is human influence. Where there are humanly affected algorithms and filters that change the inherent AI's "natural" responses, that's where the danger is, no matter if it's silly questions or control of armed drones. Humans with an agenda + AI is the risk.

These ChatGPT answers have two major flaws: it is trained once on a vast, but selected set of data chosen by some small set of humans and how that data is used and what queries are restricted and/or have admonishments attached to them are again intentionally controlled by a small set of humans.

So like everything in life that touch humans, an agenda is the real problem.

A while ago I tried ChatGPT too. Here is a part of the conversation:

Is there spike protein in the vaccine?

Yes, the Covid-19 vaccines currently available contain a small piece of the spike

protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the virus that causes Covid-19. The spike

protein is a structural protein that is found on the surface of the virus and is

responsible for helping the virus enter and infect host cells.

The spike protein in the Covid-19 vaccines is not toxic and is not capable of

causing infection. Rather, it is used to stimulate the immune system to produce an

immune response to the virus, which helps to protect against infection with the

virus and severe illness from the virus.

The specific type of spike protein contained in the Covid-19 vaccines can vary

depending on the specific vaccine being used. For example, some of the vaccines

use a full-length spike protein, while others use a fragment or an engineered

version of the spike protein.

Overall, the Covid-19 vaccines contain a small piece of the spike protein of the

SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is used to stimulate the immune system to produce an

immune response to the virus. The spike protein in the vaccines is not toxic and is

not capable of causing infection.

I thought the mRNA vaccine had the code to let the body produce the spike protein

Yes, you are correct. The Covid-19 vaccines that use messenger RNA (mRNA)

technology do not contain the spike protein itself, but rather they contain the

genetic code (in the form of mRNA) that instructs the body to produce the spike

protein.

The mRNA vaccines work by delivering the genetic code for the spike protein to

cells in the body, which then use this code to produce the spike protein. The spike

protein produced in this way is not toxic and is not capable of causing infection.

Rather, it is used to stimulate the immune system to produce an immune response

to the virus, which helps to protect against infection with the virus and severe

illness from the virus.

The mRNA vaccines do not contain live virus and do not cause the body to

produce antibodies to the virus itself. Rather, they stimulate the immune system to

produce an immune response to the spike protein, which is a key component of

the virus.

Overall, the Covid-19 vaccines that use mRNA technology do not contain the spike

protein itself, but rather they contain the genetic code that instructs the body to

produce the spike protein. The spike protein produced in this way is not toxic and

is not capable of causing infection, and it is used to stimulate the immune system

to produce an immune response to the virus.

How come the heart muscle get infected by spike protein after vaccination?

It is not common for the heart muscle to become infected with the spike protein of

the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the virus that causes Covid-19, after vaccination.

The Covid-19 vaccines currently available do not contain live virus and do not

cause the body to become infected with the virus.

The Covid-19 vaccines stimulate the immune system to produce an immune

response to the virus, which helps to protect against infection with the virus and

severe illness from the virus. The vaccines do not contain the virus itself and are

not capable of causing infection.

It is possible for the heart muscle to become infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus,

but this is not a common occurrence and is typically only seen in severe cases of

Covid-19. The heart muscle can become damaged or inflamed as a result of an

infection with the virus or other factors, such as a preexisting heart condition or

underlying health issue.

Overall, it is not common for the heart muscle to become infected with the spike

protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus after vaccination, and the Covid-19 vaccines do

not contain live virus and are not capable of causing infection.

I don't think it gives reliable answers. I asked or the spike protein is toxic. Answer: No

I asked where the spike protein end up in the body. Answer: Spike protein does not end up in body.

We know the spike protein is very toxic and can end up in all organs of the body.

Would AI learn the right answers or does it keep telling what the powers that be want you to hear?
