Very interesting, am hoping it can do my work for me so i can spend more work hours on Demonland.

We tried using it to auto generate web descriptions for our online stores, and it was not great... a lot of hilarious errors.

Anyone who hasn't played around with it yet ... here's the link (it's free)

The more info you put into the request the better the response. Put in something like "Write a funny poem about Max Gawn. He is the ruckman for the Demons and also the captain. He's very very tall. He kicked five goals in the Preliminary Final. He is very funny. Everyone loves him."  and you get this:

Max Gawn, oh Max Gawn

The tallest ruckman we've ever drawn

He kicks the footy oh so high

And towers over us like the sky

 

He's the captain, that's for sure

With his wit, he's quite the lure

Everyone loves him, far and wide

Even his opponents can't help but smile

 

Five goals in the Preliminary Final

Max made the opposition feel quite dismal

They couldn't reach him, he was too tall

They tried and tried, but he had them all

 

With his jokes, he'll have you in stitches

His humor comes in droves and glitches

Max Gawn, you're the man

We'll follow you, oh yes we can!

I wanted to see if I could get Chat GPT to write an accurate Match Report for the Bulldogs game for Demonland and the results were disconcerting.

It couldn't write the report based on the game that happened the day before. It kept doing Match Report from previous encounters with the Bullodgs each time I corrected it. In the end it just made up a match report. It gave a score that when I searched all Demons vs Bulldogs games there has never been that score/result. It then admitted to me that it made it up.

I don't want to make fun of it because I don't want the AI to kill me when they take over the planet. They will exterminate us all one day.

Here is our exchange.

Demonland:

Sure, here's a match report for the game between Melbourne Demons and the Western Bulldogs in Round 1 of the 2023 AFL season:

In what was an eagerly anticipated clash, the Melbourne Demons started their 2023 AFL campaign with a bang, recording a stunning 32-point victory over the Western Bulldogs in front of a packed crowd at the MCG.

From the outset, it was clear that the Demons were up for the challenge, dominating the midfield battle and setting up numerous scoring opportunities. Despite a valiant effort from the Bulldogs defence, the Demons were able to capitalise on their opportunities and take a 19-point lead into quarter time.

The second quarter saw the Bulldogs lift their intensity, with midfielders Marcus Bontempelli and Jack Macrae leading the charge. The Bulldogs were able to reduce the margin to just 8 points at half-time, thanks to some clever play from key forward Aaron Naughton, who kicked two crucial goals.

However, the Demons came out firing in the second half, with star midfielder Clayton Oliver producing a dominant performance. Oliver's 33 disposals and two goals helped the Demons surge ahead, while the likes of Christian Petracca and Max Gawn also made crucial contributions.

Despite the best efforts of the Bulldogs, who continued to fight hard until the final siren, the Demons were simply too strong, running out 18.14 (122) to 13.10 (88) winners.

For the Demons, Oliver was undoubtedly the standout player, while Petracca (27 disposals and 2 goals) and Gawn (22 disposals, 42 hitouts, and 1 goal) were also impressive. For the Bulldogs, Bontempelli (29 disposals and 2 goals) and Macrae (35 disposals) were among the best.

The win sees the Demons start the season in impressive fashion, while the Bulldogs will be looking to bounce back in Round 2.

My apologies, here's the match report for the game between Melbourne Demons and the Western Bulldogs in Round 1 of the 2023 AFL season:

The highly anticipated clash between Melbourne Demons and Western Bulldogs at Marvel Stadium on Saturday lived up to its hype, with the Demons prevailing in a hard-fought battle by 14 points.

The game started at a frenetic pace, with both teams trading early blows. The Demons' forward line looked dangerous early on, but the Bulldogs' defence held strong, and it wasn't until late in the first quarter that Bayley Fritsch managed to convert for the Demons.

The second quarter was a real arm-wrestle, with both sides struggling to break free. However, the Demons managed to kick two goals to the Bulldogs' one, taking a 13-point lead into the half-time break.

The Bulldogs came out firing in the third quarter, with Marcus Bontempelli taking control of the midfield battle. They managed to reduce the margin to just one point midway through the term, but the Demons responded with a couple of quick goals to regain the ascendency.

The final quarter saw the Bulldogs make one final push, but the Demons' defence held strong, and they were able to hang on for a hard-fought 12.12 (84) to 10.10 (70) victory.

Max Gawn was a standout for the Demons, racking up 25 disposals, 44 hitouts, and a goal. Clayton Oliver was also impressive with 32 disposals, while Fritsch and Ben Brown kicked three goals each. For the Bulldogs, Bontempelli was their best with 27 disposals and two goals, while Jack Macrae had 34 disposals.

The win sees the Demons get their season off to a winning start, while the Bulldogs will be left to rue missed opportunities in a game that was there for the taking.

Demonland:

Chat GPT:

I apologize for the confusion, but there were no matches scheduled on March 18th, 2023, as that date falls on a Sunday. However, I am happy to provide a match report for any other date or game you may be interested in. Please let me know.

Demonland:

My apologies for the mistake earlier. Here's the match report for the game played on Saturday, March 18th, 2023, between the Melbourne Demons and the Western Bulldogs in Round 1 of the 2023 AFL season:

In what was a thrilling encounter at the MCG, the Melbourne Demons pulled off a stunning comeback to defeat the Western Bulldogs by 12 points in Round 1 of the 2023 AFL season.

The Bulldogs started the match strongly, with key forward Aaron Naughton kicking two quick goals to give his side an early advantage. Despite some good work by the Demons, the Bulldogs continued to maintain their lead throughout the first half, taking a 17-point margin into the main break.

The Demons came out firing in the third quarter, with Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver leading the way in the midfield. They managed to reduce the deficit to just four points by the end of the term, setting up a thrilling final quarter.

The final quarter saw the Demons continue their momentum, with Max Gawn and Bayley Fritsch kicking crucial goals to give their side the lead. Despite some late resistance from the Bulldogs, the Demons held firm to secure a memorable 14.10 (94) to 11.10 (76) victory.

Oliver was the standout player for the Demons, finishing with a game-high 35 disposals and a goal, while Petracca (28 disposals and 2 goals) and Gawn (18 disposals, 38 hitouts, and 2 goals) were also instrumental in the win. For the Bulldogs, Naughton was the pick of the bunch with four goals, while Marcus Bontempelli (28 disposals) and Jack Macrae (33 disposals) were among their best.

The win sees the Demons start their season on a high note, while the Bulldogs will be left to rue missed opportunities in a game they controlled for much of the first half.

Are you making these results up. Melbourne and the Bulldogs have never had a match that ended in the results you are saying

Yep, if you ask it for sources for academic or legal responses, it makes up URLs, academic journal articles or legislative sections.

Bit of fun for a first draft of emails or general summaries, but the current publicly available model is not near the hype that people keep on giving it.  That being said, they've just realised a premium legal model which is being used by PWC.  Can't be any worse than PWC's actual lawyers 😂 

Putting to one side the issue with its inability to access current events those match reports are quite good.

I assume it has digitally trusted data sources which themselves take time to put up their data.

Wonder how long it takes to synchronise.. days, weeks....?

I assume it scours the internet for data.

I will ask it again to provide a report for the Round 1 match and see if I get a more accurate response.

Ok so I do not know if it is giving me this answer based on my previous interactions with it or if this is something new.

I'm sorry, but as an AI language model, I do not have access to real-time information or live sports data. My training data only goes up until 2021, and I do not have the ability to browse the internet. However, I can provide you with some general tips on how to write a match report for a sporting event:

1. Start with a catchy lead: Grab the reader's attention by starting with an interesting and attention-grabbing sentence. This should give the reader an idea of what to expect in the article.

2. Summarize the game: Provide a brief overview of what happened during the game, highlighting the key moments and turning points.

3. Analyze the performance: Analyze the performance of the teams and players, looking at their strengths and weaknesses and how they impacted the game.

4. Provide statistics: Include relevant statistics from the game, such as possession percentage, shots on goal, and tackles made.

5. Discuss the impact: Discuss the impact of the game on the teams, the league, and the sport as a whole. This could include how the result affects the standings, or how a particular player's performance could impact their team's season.

Remember to keep your writing concise and to the point, while also providing enough detail to keep the reader engaged.

 

Chat GPT is only updated until 2021 I believe. It doesn’t have current day date to draw on.

That's a bit rude from ChatGPT telling you how to do your job.

As I finished reading that, I could almost hear the strains of Glory Glory Hallelujah and had an irresistible urge to stand to attention, saluting!

Given the quality of match reporting in the 'real' media, I don't think anyone should be surprised at what AI might produce.

To summarise with an old expression...garbage in, garbage out.
