Overheard: "Let's get some scissors, because even though this is perforated, we both know it's a dirty lie."

I was on a podcast where kids asked two people questions to decide who was the fake and who was the real expert.

The host said that early on, the kids chose the fake every time because the actors answered every question confidently and the experts would hedge or even sometimes say, "I don't know."

They eventually told the fakes to be less confident so the kids would pick the expert sometimes.

It just occurred to me this is now real life with #chatGPT (but nobody is telling it to back off).

Hmm -- a link doesn't support alt text, but it's to a video of me performing a Samoan fireknife dance to Dick Dale's Misirlou.
