Talking with GPT in The Dark - The media, Egyptians in the Grand Canyon, & the Piscean and Aquarian Ages


What is the relationship between science fiction and real-world technology?

Late one night
, or more accurately, early one morning around 3AM, I found myself spelunking my way through the neural network that powers ChatGPT. 

The way we humans interact with artificial intelligence has been forever changed. 2022 was a year of undeniable global transformation, which ended on an exploratory note. 

Beyond the topics of UFOs, a hollow pandemic, the war in Ukraine, supply chain disruptions, and the struggles between employees and employers over remote work, the year concluded by unleashing a full-fledged genie. 

And she's not going back in the bottle and on this early morn, I posed the following, in this order:

Write a poem about analog, digital, and quantum computing.
What are robot rules according to Asimov?
What are Newton's laws?
Where there canals on Mars?
Explain the blockchain.
How often has science fiction predicted real-world results? Is it common?
What year did blizzards start being named?
What is the stated reason for naming blizzards?
What is it called when giving human characteristics to a nonhuman entity?
Do you have statistics on how often certain words have been used in news media over the last two decades?
Have people from Egypt been to North America before Western Europeans?
Are there Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon?
Explain the difference and connection between the Picsean and Aquarian ages.
Do current events fit into the Aquarian model?
Based on the content above, write a summary paragraph in the styel of Indian Jones.

Join me as we explore the mind of the jinn or is it the mind of the author?

Enjoy!
