CHAT GPT

I think the Green Party needs to stop nagging the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs that "eating five greens a day" might be encouraging cannibalism, and get down to the real nitty-gritty green agenda.

The Green Party needs to tell its members about Chat GPT. They will, of course, have to use words such as "mindful", "mindfulness" "demure" and "super" as an adjective/adverb that the ThickTack lump of lard, Jools Lebron, (described an an "internet sensation" and "internet celebrity" - what on earth is that crap all about?) has virally popularised for all the sheep to grab their attention. This is to stress that she is fantastic and deserves being labelled a celebrity sensation so she can avoid actually working for a living. Life on benefits is so much more grim in the USA.

Maybe chuck in the odd "ringfenced" and "blue sky thought", and the Green's membership goldfish-like attention span will have been well and truly grabbed by the Margoolies.

According to someone (Sam Altman, of Open AI) in the Sunday Times, who knows about these things, there are some 700million users of Chat GPT each week. I would have thought counting the number of chats is very similar to the counting pollen - it must take someone hours, if not months.

And I thought Chat GPT was a get-together in the local tea shop.

Each 'Chat' question needs 1,224 joules (0.34 watt-hours of power), the amount the average kitchen oven consumes in a second. Or the energy a high-efficiency light-bulb would use in a couple of minutes. It also needs a third of a ml of water (one-fifteenth of a teaspoon).

Why all this cooking and lightbulb stuff is needed to explain ChatGPT, I have no idea. Perhaps it's a subversive plot to get the Green Party membership, renowned for being extremely dim (hence the lightbulb analogy) to put some water in their ovens and ask it a question.

A Season for all men

Well, we’re used to hearing about the Camping Season , which for Scouts runs from approximately 31st March to 31st October each year, although Graham Norton’s camping season lasts all year. Then there’s the Caravan Season , where Jeremy Clarkson spends six months with extremely high blood pressure as he tries to overtake them on the A38 in an excruciatingly expensive and completely unnecessary car. The Japanese have their Scientific Season, which was a series of sporadic weeks where they slaughtered endangered whales for scientific research, the results of which seem to be a closely guarded world-secret. This season now looks set, thanks to a group of spineless, land-locked countries threatened by the Land of the Rising Scientific Research with paying more for their Nintendos and PlayStations, to last until the final whale is wiped off the face of the oceans. I have written to the Japanese Embassy four times now seeking details of this research (email address info@l...

"Q". My name is Bond. Oh. not THAT Q.

I was sent a story today by a friend who knows my feelings on the subject - that is, about one of the consummately greatest of all British activities, namely, queuing. It seems some Danish Professor or other has come up with the theory that those who queue the longest should actually be served the last. He claims it makes purchasing something altogether more efficient and smooth through the idea of 'contra-queuing' (whatever the devil that may mean). 'Serve the people at the back of the queue first', he says, with profound wisdom. Altogether very professorial, albeit demonstrating a somewhat keen lack of understanding of the purchasing psyche. The Nobel Prize-chasing Prof suggests that if, for example, a popular entertainment act was to announce a tour, with tickets going on sale at 11am one morning, using the theory of 'contra-queuing', no one will want to be first to buy said tickets. So no one will turn up 14 months in advance and venues will...

Leeds Bradford Airport leads the way............

............................. for their rip-off Britain welcome to passengers. Leeds Bradford Airport (LBA) continues its policy of extracting as much money as it can from its visiting captive audience with a new £6 charge for vehicles with more than 7 seats. The 'spokesman', who by now must be scarlet with embarrassment having to continually justify LBA's various daylight robbery methods says about the charge "they now have a dedicated lane with the space they need to operate safely." You have to hand it to LBA. They continually come up with some classic and great excuses to justify their substantial range of hidden passenger taxes. There is a £2 "fee" for delivering or collecting passengers 400m in front of the airport terminal. Great start to a holiday, getting soaked traipsing 400m to the terminal door in the often inclement Yorkshire weather (free drop off and less than a 50m walk under cover to the doors of Manchester Airport Terminal 2).
