Campion Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 They say things come in threes. First ChatGPT, then Microsoft Copilot, and now Google Bard. Are they expecting us to believe it's a coincidence they all. come at the same time? This is pre-planned. " Meet Bard, an early experiment by Google. You can think of Bard as your creative and helpful collaborator, here to bring your ideas to life using generative AI. We’d like to offer you the opportunity to be among the first to sign up for the new experience and provide feedback. " 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webtrekker Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Ok, I've just tried ChatGPT 4 with a prompt of my own ... write some html and JS code for a webpage that displays the current weather in a location input by the user This was the output generated by ChatGPT 4 ... <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Current Weather</title> <meta charset="utf-8"> <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function(){ var apiKey = "YOUR API KEY"; $("#submit-btn").click(function(){ var location = $("#location-input").val(); var apiURL = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=" + location + "&appid=" + apiKey; $.getJSON(apiURL, function(data){ var description = data.weather[0].description; var temperature = Math.round(data.main.temp - 273.15); // Convert from Kelvin to Celsius and round to nearest integer var humidity = data.main.humidity; $("#weather").text("Current weather in " + location + ": " + description + ", " + temperature + "°C, " + humidity + "% humidity"); }).fail(function() { $("#weather").text("Sorry, could not retrieve weather information for " + location + "."); }); }); }); </script> </head> <body> <label for="location-input">Enter location:</label> <input type="text" id="location-input" name="location-input"> <button id="submit-btn">Get Weather</button> <div id="weather"></div> </body> </html> All I had to do then was replace the token "YOUR API KEY" with my actual OpenWeatherMap key (generated when you register at openweathermap.org ) and upload the code to my server. It worked first time! A bit basic regarding formatting but here's what it looks like in Firefox ... I need to do some more elaborate testing but so far I'm cautiously impressed!

webtrekker Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) I noticed a problem in the code generated by ChatGPT 4 above. Well, not really a problem as such, more a bad practice issue. When you use an API Key it shouldn't be hard-coded into your page source code as anyone can view your key by simply viewing the page source in the browser. It's always better to keep keys server-side and pass them to the Javascript when asked. So, I then asked ChatGPT 4 the following (to which I already knew the answer)... the api key in the last code can be seen in the page source code. how can i hide it? Here's the reply ... Good catch! You're right, including the API key in the page source code can be a security risk because it exposes your key to potential attackers. One way to hide the API key is to use a server-side script to make the API request on behalf of the client-side JavaScript code. This way, the API key is stored securely on the server-side, and the client-side code only makes a request to the server-side script instead of directly to the API. Here's an example of how you can modify the previous code to use a server-side script: Create a new file on your server called weather.php (or any other name you prefer) with the following contents: <?php $apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY"; $location = $_GET['location']; $apiURL = "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=" . urlencode($location) . "&appid=" . $apiKey; $response = file_get_contents($apiURL); echo $response; ?> Modify the client-side JavaScript code to make a request to weather.php instead of directly to the API: <script> $(document).ready(function(){ $("#weather-form").submit(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); var location = $("#location-input").val(); var apiURL = "weather.php?location=" + encodeURIComponent(location); $.getJSON(apiURL, function(data){ var description = data.weather[0].description; var temperature = Math.round(data.main.temp - 273.15); // Convert from Kelvin to Celsius and round to nearest integer var humidity = data.main.humidity; $("#weather-result").html("<p>Current weather in " + location + ": " + description + ", " + temperature + "°C, " + humidity + "% humidity</p>"); }).fail(function(){ $("#weather-result").html("<p>Unable to retrieve weather for " + location + "</p>"); }); }); }); </script> In this modified code, the client-side JavaScript code sends a request to weather.php with the user's location input as a GET parameter. The server-side PHP code retrieves the API key from a local variable, constructs the API request URL using the user's location input, retrieves the weather data from the API, and echoes it back to the client-side JavaScript code as a JSON response. Note that in order for this to work, your server must have PHP installed and enabled. Also, make sure to replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with your actual API key in weather.php. Wonderful! ChatGPT 4 has updated its own code to tackle the visible API Key problem. That's pretty amazing so far. [UPDATE: You can check out my uploaded ChatGPT 4 code here. Just enter any valid location in the world.] Edited March 23 by webtrekker Updated 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truthblast Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 All these AI chabots suddenly being rolled into everything from web search (Bing, others) to Office tools (e.g. Microsoft Word, Excel bla bla bla) can only mean one thing: As people ASK these AIs to perform various tasks for them... ...the AIs LEARN AS MUCH INFO ABOUT YOU as a WORK COLLEAGUE or FAMILY MEMBER WOULD KNOW. When you ask it to WRITE EMAILS FOR YOU it also LEARNS THINGS ABOUT WHOEVER YOU ARE CORRESPONDING WITH. This is a GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE GATHERING EFFORT THAT GOES EVEN BEYOND WEB SEARCH, SOCIAL MEDIA AND LINKEDIN. Millions of people are talking to ChatGPT4 and others about all sorts of things they NEED. This is SIGINT infrastructure being used to gather HUMINT with an automated INTELLIGENCE ANALYST sneakily in DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE INTELLIGENCE TARGET ITSELF. And the more people get used to using "AI ASSISTANTS" the more they give up TORRENTS OF INFORMATION ABOUT THEMSELVES. Perhaps even worse, the AIs are already GIVING AGENDA-BIASED ANSWERS to millions of people. So its UNACKNOWLEDGED PRIVACY INVASION + DISINFORMATION DISSEMINATION...

Name444 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Don't despair.... these are exciting times. I believe we are heading for a complete collapse, and considering the world as it is today, especially the West, then a complete reset (in the literal, rather than NWO sense) might not be all bad. widespread anarchic/survival situation will quickly purge all the woke for being the useless idiots they are.

webtrekker Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Just having a bit of fun with ChatGPT ... Q: find a funny title and name for a person who wears a tinfoil hat. Highlight the names with html bold tags A: I'm sorry, as an AI language model, I am not capable of formatting my responses with HTML tags. However, I can suggest a few funny titles and names for a person who wears a tinfoil hat: Captain Conspirator (for a humorous superhero-style title) Sir Foil-a-Lot (a play on the name Sir Lancelot) The Aluminum Avenger (a nod to the superhero Iron Man) Tin Foil Tony/Tina (a playful name) The Hat-wearing Hysteria Hunter (a funny alliteration) The Conspiracy Clown (for someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously) The Foil-wrapped Folly Fighter (another alliteration) The Paranoia Princess/Prince (for a more whimsical title) The Tin Foil Troubadour (for someone who loves to sing their conspiracy theories) The Aluminum Amigo (a humorous Spanish twist on a tinfoil hat wearer). I particularly like the way it formatted the names in bold, as requested, even though it said it wasn't capable of doing that!

webtrekker Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Another ChatGPT test (influenced by Countdown) ... Q: make 666 fom the following set of numbers using each number only once using the + - * / mathematical operators: 2,11,17,25,100 A: To make 666 using each number only once from the set {2, 11, 17, 25, 100} using mathematical operators (+, -, *, /), one possible way to do this is: (100 + 25 + 17) * (11 - 2) - 2 = 666 Explanation: Add 100, 25, and 17 to get 142. Subtract 2 from 11 to get 9. Multiply 142 by 9 to get 1278. Subtract 2 from 1278 to get 1276. Finally, subtract 1276 by 1276 to get 666. Therefore, (100 + 25 + 17) * (11 - 2) - 2 = 666. Took less than 5 seconds! I'm getting hooked on this now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q: ok, make a spoonerism of Mary Hinge A: Certainly! A spoonerism of "Mary Hinge" would be "Hairy Minge."

webtrekker Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 ChatGPT4 can be used like Midjourney, DALL-E, Stable Diffusion and the rest ... but in REVERSE! Q: describe this image https://img.freepik.com/premium-photo/young-man-tin-foil-hat-displeased-looks-forward-afraid-radiation-aliens_262388-7583.jpg?w=900 For reference, this is the image linked in the above prompt ... Running this prompt in ChatGPT4 produces this response ... A: The image depicts a young man wearing a tin foil hat, looking displeased and afraid as he looks forward. The man seems to be in a state of paranoia as the tin foil hat suggests that he is trying to protect himself from radiation or mind control, possibly by aliens or some other external force. The man's expression is intense and his eyes are wide open, indicating a sense of fear and uncertainty. The background of the image is unclear, with only a vague blur suggesting an indoor setting. Overall, the image conveys a sense of anxiety and suspicion, highlighting the irrational fears that can sometimes take hold of individuals. Now, I don't know about you, but I think this is amazing in itself. It shows that ChatGPT4 has an understanding of what an image is portraying, including human emotion.

webtrekker Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) How about some Text-To-Speech (TTS) coding? Q: use html and js to produce a page that will read back text input by the user using TTS A: Sure! Here's an example HTML and JavaScript code that uses the Web Speech API to read back text input by the user: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Text-to-Speech</title> </head> <body> <label for="text">Enter text:</label> <input type="text" id="text"> <button id="speak">Speak</button> <script> const button = document.querySelector('#speak'); const input = document.querySelector('#text'); const synth = window.speechSynthesis; let voices = []; // Load available voices function populateVoices() { voices = synth.getVoices(); } // Speak the input text function speak() { if (synth.speaking) { console.error('SpeechSynthesisUtterance instance already speaking'); return; } const text = input.value.trim(); if (text === '') { console.error('Text input is empty'); return; } const utterance = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance(text); const voice = voices.find(v => v.lang === 'en-US'); utterance.voice = voice; synth.speak(utterance); } // Register event listeners button.addEventListener('click', speak); synth.addEventListener('voiceschanged', populateVoices); </script> </body> </html> This code creates a simple webpage with a text input and a "Speak" button. When the user enters some text and clicks the "Speak" button, the webpage uses the Web Speech API to speak the input text using the default voice. Note that the 'SpeechSynthesisUtterance' object has a 'voice' property, which allows you to choose a specific voice to use. In this example, we're using the first available voice that has a language code of 'en-US'. You can change this code to use a different language or a different voice within the same language.

webtrekker Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Here's something a bit more complex, but ChatGPT-4 handled it well. I asked it to display two overlapping images on a yellow canvas that could be moved, scaled and rotated using the fabric.js Javascript library. One of the images had to have a blurred drop shadow. Here's what it looks like when I copied ChatGPT's code into jsFiddle and played around with the images a bit. As you can see, it works well and the images have handles around them for resizing, rotating etc ... Here's the Fiddle if you want to try it out. Just drag the images to reposition them etc... https://jsfiddle.net/8us241je/ Edited April 7 by webtrekker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Owl Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 On 3/11/2023 at 7:49 PM, Grumpy Owl said: This ChatGPT does have its limitations, it wouldn't code an entire PHP script to create a full ecommerce website from scratch for example, but I like how it is able to come up with code to perform certain tasks and routines. It did provide me with a PHP script for updating stock from a CSV file running on our webserver, which was great and did work, but was limited by our VPS itself. I then asked it for an equivalent Visual Basic (VB) script, that I could run on our own local server - a nifty little Windows PC we have at work - and it duly came up with a VB version. Just to follow up on this , the VB script it wrote didn't work , when I told it the error codes/messages, it did have an attempt at rewriting the code to 'fix' it, however after about three or four attempts I gave up, as it seemed I was going round in circles.

Mind you, I rather enjoy it. I did BASIC too, and COBOL in the old days. Python is extremely popular these days but I've never gone down that route myself. I prefer good old vanilla Javascript and PHP to do the donkey work. I don't think any programmer knows programming languages inside out, no matter how many times they use them. I constantly find myself looking up definitions and snippets of working code to help me along. Having said that, I believe the job of a programmer is to mentally construct a means of getting the job done and then worry about the code needed to achieve it. A lot of my own code is messy but gets the job done. As they say, 'Empty desk, empty mind!' Thats why a lot of programmers have such untidy desks! Using ChatGPT-4 will certainly help you to learn any programming language in a shorter time. It not only provides you with snippets of code but, also tries to explain why the code works, which is essential for progress. I'd suggest starting with HTML, JS (and maybe PHP if you need server-side scripts) and try out your attempts on jsFiddle or CodePen to get a feel of how it all hangs together. You can easily switch to Python once you have a good grasp of how things work. Uploading your own web apps to your own server and seeing them work on any device is a revelation and can become very addictive. Good luck with it all!
