Dr. Vaughan Pratt’s 1994 Qs to Evaluate Cyc, Asked of ChatGPT ([ref](http://www.bayleshanks.com/ai/transcripts/pratt_test_chatgpt/))

Just had to laugh at this one: San Francisco is not west of New York.

There are many more if one keeps reading.

If you are reading the answers as if they were from an AI in 1994 then you are misreading the document.

[Cyc](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyc) was started in 1984 as a [symbolic artificial intelligence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_artificial_intelligence). In 1994 those questions were asked of Cyc ([ref](http://boole.stanford.edu/pub/cyc.report)). However the answers in the [link](http://www.bayleshanks.com/ai/transcripts/pratt_test_chatgpt/) are not the answers by Cyc but those by [ChatGPT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChatGPT) which is a large [language model](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_model).

oops… indeed I was wondering how much it could have costed in 1994 the massive memory required by Cyc.

The comparisons in Q4.11 are a great example of the model not really having any idea what it’s saying 😆

The AI humor example “P and Q does not imply P” reminded me of a similar but more concrete example on linear logic (as resource aware logic), which I read a long time ago in a book by Gaishi Takeuti published in Janpanese. Although I am not familiar with theory on stable models in FOL, I feel some doubt on such semantis, though my relevant knowledge is limited with Henkin model construction well known in the literature on FOL on Goedel’s completeness theorem. Anyway I should read articles by experts and would like to see posts on “semantics of stable models” in any contexts or views.

Maybe chatgpt is a human.

So Google Brad was made public today. In giving Google Brad some of the same prompts I gave ChatGPT this one was interesting because the sources list was only the ChatGPT completion posted on this site.
