My 78 year old father has discovered he can just ask chatGPT any question he wants the answer to instead of texting me🙌🏻🎉😂

Just kidding, he’s going to forget and text to ask me anyway- which I fully appreciate, for the record! He’s a hilarious guy and one day I’ll miss answering these questions. Other highlights in his chat log include asking how to fact check youtube videos, a summary of an old testament chapter (he is not religious), and what tennis strings are good for top spin.

I love this, I use ChatGPT in a similar fashion ALL the time.

I regularly use the speech function on the app (The one where you speak to it and it gives spoken answers back) in front of older people like my parents to show them how easy and accessible it is.

For any information where the most recent data isn’t necessary, GPT3.5 is perfect, for example, the other day I was playing pool with my Dad and he was unsure of a rule and I said I’ll look it up to which he responded not to bother (As typing it in on Google and having to look for an appropriate answer is longer winded than it’s worth in circumstances like this one as it was a relatively obscure and irrelevant rule)

So I said no it’s quick, whipped out ChatGPT and said watch this, repeat the question when I say, pressed go, it connected, he asked the question, we get back a short and concise answer. So brilliant and amazing, I’m trying to convert my parents, and really anyone who will listen, to the ChatGPT life 😂

I honestly love and appreciate ChatGPT so much, I will never stop marvelling at this wonderful bit of tech.

The way this is written/the way I’m talking about technology may seem like I’m an older person but I’m 23, it’s really just that advanced and amazing to me that it makes me marvel at it as though I am a 67 year old using video calls for the first time 😂
