You are not exploring gpt 4 far enough.

Give it this prompt and a text of your choosing for it to play with.
-----

For the text bellow show me a formal, a semi-formal and informal version, each version has to be in 3 styles based on different famous authors ( you can modify this prompt for any authors or types of authors)
---------

So it will make it much harder to guess this is from a.i like you think it is

Yeah, people burning other people for witchcraft were the gods of reason, and the tools that make research more accessible and easier to do dumbed us down so much.

Ironically, the notion of how humans are getting dumber than in old good times IS the exact problem it is trying to address. We humans are extremely biased, scared of any change and are addicted to feeding our ego with nonsense to feel like we are better than the others.

Sometimes ChatGPT will come out with a phrase or sentence that is directly insertable into my writing, either because it is more succinct or more complete, or both, than what I could come up with organically. And I think if you use it in this way (only taking a select few sentences where applicable) then it is pretty much undetectable. But on the other hand, it’ll sometimes spit out nonsensical ideas or illogical arguments, and the diction is pretty obvious in the context of the entire answer, so you really can’t just copy and paste the entire response.

I basically just see it as an accelerator for my own thinking, rather than a replacement for it. I find that it produces additional trains of thought that I may have not considered and gives me a basic understanding of concepts that I’ll dive deeper into.

I've taught kids and I've been using ChatGPT for my own stuff a lot lately.

It's great to supplement your work by fixing grammar, spelling, and maybe even economizing your words. But it's incredibly obvious when it's been used. I think any half decent teacher/professor will be able to distinguish its use in regard to plagiarism vs its use in regard to assistance - the latter of which I think should be acceptable and possibly even encouraged.

Well, point is:

They were right.

Current situation of having both highly educated and completely illiterate/useless adults is a direct result of this intellectual off loading…

What did people think? That not knowing how to add integers would allow students more time to learn Set theory? No, it was just a way to inflate the grades.
