I asked Chat-GPT aboout Elon’s salute, just for fun, and it replied it could not analyse pictures and I needed to describe it to him. I had pictures analysed before, even traslating and explaining a cartoon joke. I tought it could be caused by the .webp format. So I retried the joke image and it worked fine. I uploaded a png of Elon and it went wrong. Can others repeat the experience or was it just a fluke? I am not angry just let down a little.
It could never be trusted to start with. There is no intelligence to it, its a model based on society’s media soup. Its very easy to manipulate by users depending on how you present your query, and yes it is also tweaked by open AI political views. I expect it to enshitify even faster than google but for now it can be useful in many ways as long as you are aware of whet you are interacting with.
