Excellent. the combination of lists then producing a better alternative, like it
The most interesting thing was the amount of ideas generated by GBB.
The most interesting thing to me is how human of a response we get. There’re ideas in here that work from emotions and concepts like family. It makes sense because humans have fed in the concepts, but it makes me wonder about how easy the idea of being human is to mimic and what this means for the definition of personhood. It also makes me wonder about the definition of AI and what we should be counting as intelligence. There is some ability to ‘learn’ in terms of adding new information, but is there an ability to make judgements? I’ve found when it makes an error it says, yes of course, I was wrong, but then it will also make the same or a similar mistake a moment later. It doesn’t seem to have the ability to apply learnt information across multiple contexts. We call this Artificial Intelligence, but to me that implies some sort of entity that can be flexible and adaptable and extrapolate. Congratulations for reading this far, that was quite the diatribe. In conclusion, running a GBB with CHatGPT is a useful tool, but it also highlights the limitations of a ‘generative AI’.

Interesting aspect of AI doing a GBB is the speed allowing modification to the original prompt.
The categorised responses make it easy to understand the content presented.
In responding to the question, my prompt on the AI GBB : Good is the education and awareness by using Free Fridays to raise awareness of sustainable choices. Better is the possibility of creating partnerships with businesses in providing incentives to employees who use public transport on Fridays. Bad is the complexity in implementing which of the services should be free and how to administer which could lead to misunderstandings.
Ai use is simple and straightforward. Since it has come to help humanity for good. i see nothing wrong with it’s use
The most interesting answer is the tenth answer under Good points as it highlights a perennial problem that people are creatures of habit. One should seek out and try new experiences. It is only by trying them that one can determine whether they should become regular events in your life.
This is the whole idea of this use of ChatGPT. It is to shift people out of habitual thinking patterns to new patterns.
How would the credibility of this source of this information be assessed?
I found the stretch of thinking especially in the BETTER points very interesting, this shows that with good orientation of the users, they can benefit by improving their own thinking. I had started my DFQ by jotting down my own BETTER points before reading the ones generated by the ChatGPT. This made me appreciate ChatGPT as a tool to supplement my thinking.
What I find most fascinating about this AI-generated GBB analysis is how it dynamically adapts based on the context and perspective provided in the prompt. In a small experiment, I modified the original prompt by including: “To build a stronger sense of community with public transportation…” This modification evidently influenced the AI’s responses. The AI’s utility, I realized, hinges not only on the quality of the input (a case of GIGO or Garbage In, Garbage Out), but also on one’s willingness to iteratively refine the prompt and experiment with different perspectives. This approach allows for an exploration of various purposes, desired outcomes, and impacts, essentially creating a more comprehensive tree of possibilities and considerations.
What is most interesting to me is how the ChatGBT seems to lack focus. It feels random and doesn’t comment clearly on the ‘by law’ part of the question. I would find this if limited use in practice and that makes me question how best to prompt the type of response I would find helpful. For example Good points point 4 not all employers are able to offer manual workers the opportunity to work from home, and point 9 can help reduce costs of transportation seems a very vague point that needs further exploration. The speed of generation is impressive but the quality of content concerning.
