> Who will be the next president of Germany?

> As an AI language model, I do not have the ability to predict the future or make any definitive statements about who will be the next president of Germany beyond the information that is publicly available at my knowledge cutoff date. The Federal Republic of Germany has a parliamentary system of government, and the President of Germany is the Head of State, elected by the Federal Convention, which consists of the members of the German Bundestag and an equal number of delegates from the 16 German states. The next presidential election is scheduled for 2021. The current president is Frank-Walter Steinmeier, who took office on March 19, 2017, and his term is set to end on March 18, 2022. It is up to the German people to decide who will be the next president of Germany.

A standard bureaucratic nonanswer - just what ChatGPT would say and not a bad thing for non-human entities people might take seriously to say. What do you want, some prognostication?

[twblalock]

It would be good if the AI knew what year it was...

I actually asked it what today was an it replied correctly but when I asked it who the current President of the United States, it also answered correctly but stipulated that it only knew up to Jan 2021, and iirc even said "my training data is only up to" which I also thought was interesting

The response content there almost certainly comes from the training data from ShareGPT.

Missed that but so what, that bit of ignorance a general feature of all the Llms.

As another tidbit of self-reflection, I asked it what license Vicuna was released under and it claimed MIT (it's actually Apache 2: https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat/blob/main/LICENSE ) and when I asked it to tell me why it believed the project was MIT licensed it told me what the MIT license was and why a project would choose it :-/

I can appreciate there may be some nuance since the repo is actually named FastChat but the chatbot seems to be named Vicuna so ... tomato, tomahtoe?

Not even trying any reasoning. As if what some hope will be an emergent feature was clipped "just to be sure".

It can do some basic coding. The code syntax highlighting looks cool.

> Do a quick sort in python

> Here's an example of a quicksort implementation in Python:

def quicksort(array): if len(array) <= 1: return array pivot = array[0] less = [x for x in array[1:] if x <= pivot] greater = [x for x in array[1:] if x > pivot] return quicksort(less) + [pivot] + quicksort(greater)

[fauxpause_]

Quick sort is a terrible test case as it will have numerous training data examples of this exact concept

This is exactly what concerns me...that, and that others will have the non-crippled version.
