Here's the response to "Who is the screenwriter and director Julian Simpson?"
Julian Simpson is a British screenwriter and director who has worked in both television and radio. He is known for creating and writing the BBC Radio 4 drama "Blondel", as well as for directing and writing several TV episodes of "Doctor Who", "The Outcast", "Case Sensitive", and "Wallander". He has also been a writer and producer for the TV series "The Sarah Jane Adventures", "The Tunnel", and "Cuffs".
Literally the only correct credit in that paragraph is Doctor Who (although I didn't write any of it). I can't even make a six-degrees-of-separation connection to any of the others. For fun, we asked it to give us a history of East Anglia the other night. It told us that the Battle of Hastings had happened there. I really don't know what this is for. It's artificial, certainly, but not intelligent.
Suw Charman-Anderson is a British writer, journalist, and social technologist. She is the founder of Ada Lovelace Day, an international celebration of the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM). She is also a co-founder of the Open Rights Group, a UK-based advocacy group for digital rights and freedoms, and has written extensively on technology and its social implications. Charman-Anderson has been recognized for her work as an advocate for women in STEM and has received numerous awards for her contributions to the field.
That's pretty good, actually, except for the final sentence. I've not received any awards and have barely had any recognition, so yeah, thanks for rubbing salt into the wound, ChatGPT.
I’ll see if my daughter wants to do this with me during school vacation next week, she’s the most qualified I think. I think I was more asking if you’d mind if I used ChatGPT to do it?
I spent the day at an MIT AI conference yesterday and will write it up a bit next week and post Stephen Wolframs bit when the videos go up he spoke directly to what ChatGPT 4 means for literature. He said “It discovered something we humans should have 2000 years ago...” It doesn’t know anything but it’s a pretty good writer and will make computational literary studies actually work. I have used WolframAlpha and Mathematica since they came out and grew up with them so I’m curious. I haven’t even played with it yet but will definitely try 4 since all these guys working on it for 40 years say it’s an order of magnitude better.
Have you tried GPT 4? Worth £16 to play for a month. It's remarkably better than 3.5 though I don't think it'll change any of your conclusions here materially - we're nowhere near the Singularity just yet. But maybe - just maybe - you can get those pod bay doors open.

I asked it who I am, and it gave me this:

This essay is gold.

Perfect.
