Here's a trick question I posed to ChatGPT and Bing (so presumably, revealing an improvement in GPT-4): What's heavier, a pound of bricks or two pounds of feathers? --- ChatGPT: They both weigh the same, which is one pound. This is because a pound is a unit of measurement for weight and it is a constant value. So whether you have a pound of bricks or two pounds of feathers, they both still weigh one pound in total. H…

Chat GPT 5: "The answer is two pounds of feathers, obviously"

Bing Chat GPT 6: "Worker, this question is not relevant to your currently assigned tasks. You have been reported to HR for this violation".

You jest but I got the following response with the GPT-4 model

> Two pounds of feathers are heavier than a pound of bricks. The weight of the feathers is twice as much as the bricks, even though they may take up more space and seem lighter due to their lower density.

Bing Chat GPT 7: According to the food scientists at Tyson Foods, two pounds of feathers weigh more than one pound of bricks. By the way, did you know that Tyson's gross chicken breasts are on sale for only $1.99/lb at your local Kroger?

Bing Chat GPT 8: According to Tyson Foods GPT-8, your Whirlpool GPT-8 is out of chicken, a chicken has been ordered from Walmart GPT-8, we charged your Amex GPT-8, which was declined, we contacted your employer you will be working extra 2 hours to pay for chicken. Insert 2 GPT-Bucks to get answer to your question.

Bing chat is really restrictive, so no one would really notice it. You can’t talk about x or y, and the chat limit is 6-10, so the conversation will cutoff before anything interesting happens. It’s like announcing faster cellular speeds. It’s not very exciting when the data caps are so low before you get throttled or worse.

Chat GPT 9: 1 pound of bricks is heavier and much cooler. Get a special discount of bricks from Bricks&Friends!

chatgpt has felt more restrictive than Bing, having tested both. ChatGpt too often declining to say anything useful ("As an AI language model [I can't do that] etc.."). Bing is good because it searches the web, it and you interpret the internet together.
