What if I told you that you could unravel the mysteries of generative AI, and ChatGPT in particular, through the eyes of a Stochastic Parrot? Join me, your host Michael R Gilbert, as we embark on an exciting journey into the world of generative AI, exploring its capabilities and contemplating the potential dangers hidden within this powerful technology.

Together, we'll dive deep into the concept of word distance, essential for encoding context and understanding language. Our AI parrot example will guide us through a fascinating exploration of probability frequency and how it influences the AI's responses to prompts. We'll also discuss the implications of generative AI, its ability to create new content never seen before, and the challenges that come with it. By the end of this episode, you'll have a better grasp of generative AI's power and potential pitfalls, as well as a newfound appreciation for our stochastic feathered friend.
