What would you do with more memory? Clearly, play more complex games. One difference between OpenAI’s new text generator (known as GPT-3) and the other neural networks I’ve used in the past is that it now looks at much more text when deciding what to write next. Enough text (2048 “tokens” or approximately 1000 words) that I was able to give it examples of two five-question personality tests, and ask it to predict what the content of the third personality test would be. I have presented them here, in clickable format.
Remember, the AI is based on math, so it must be correct.
Which artificial intelligence are you?
I produced these tests by giving the AI two example quizzes, then the topic of the next one.
Which chapter of the AI Weirdness book You Look Like a Thing and I Love You are you?
Some of my favorite quiz topics are ones the AI generated itself. I would not have thought of these:
Which legendary glowing cat are you?
Which ant-person are you?
Which alien animal are you?
If you’d like to read its quiz entitled “Which metal diplodocus are you?” (neural net’s title, not mine) you can enter your email here, and I’ll send it to you.
My book on AI is available wherever books are sold:

The Sun rises over Earth in a postcard illustrated by Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov, recalling the 1965 mission when he became the first human to walk in space.
scientists in the 1990s, putting a Get More Purple gene attached to a harmless plant virus into an already purple petunia: please get more purple
the petunia, sensing an apparent honest to god Get More Purple Disease, using the previously undiscovered RNAi antiviral ability to shut down all other purple genes along with it just in case: you put VIRUS in petunia? you infect her with the More Purple?? oh! oh! her children shall bloom white! jail for mother, jail for mother for One Thousand Years!!!!

“In the 1970′s the Princeton physicist Gerard O’Neill with the help of NASA Ames Research Center and Stanford University held a series of space colony summer studies which explored the possibilities of humans living in giant orbiting spaceships. Colonies housing about 10,000 people were designed and a number of artistic renderings of the concepts were made.”
