If each of those EV batteries is a 100 kilowatt-hour Tesla battery, and your lunar base uses just one kilowatt like an average American house, then sure, three batteries will last for (almost) two weeks since there are 336 hours in two weeks.

But Rolls-Royce is talking about a reactor that can provide megawatts. If we need a megawatt of power instead of a kilowatt, then we multiply our battery requirement by a factor of a thousand.

+1 Marketing Gimmick.

There are the German Beer Purity Standards of the 1500s to maintain.

They might do something mundane like "convert my five gallon hobby batch recipe measured in volumes to a twenty barrel recipe measured by weights" that would be useful ... and marketable!

No I copy and paste blocks of text. Sometimes the first iteration is...not quite what I want it to be, so there is an 'answer again' option and that often gives a better result a second time.

I'm not 100% clear in my mind yet whether I am using ChatGPT to paraphrase a news article, or to plagiarize it. For my purposes the vocabulary and grammar of most native-English news stories is too advanced for ESL learners, so ChatGPT helps me to do something faster that I normally do anyway.

Well, it's a result based on that lieu, anyway. Which is part of one of the concerns of 'replacing' scholarly workers. That without a continuing body of reliable data, AI will not be able to progress.

I've used it for some similar types of questions. It's good at finding more or less something applicable to what I'm looking for (in legal questions, history, etc). But it seems it's just grabbing what I could find otherwise on Wikipedia and research papers, and making it so I don't have to read through everything to find it. And for giving colored responses that we can interpret. I haven't really been impressed by anything it's said though, the way I am when I listen to a real expert in the subject, and rather it's just good at presenting encyclopedic/textbook info. Have you?
