ChatGPT sets its sights on university! AI bot can now reason as well as the average college student, study claims

Artificial intelligence can now reason as well as the average college student. Dr Geoffrey Hinton, who is seen as one of the godfathers of AI, warned recently that the technology'may soon be' more intelligent than people. Now it appears AI has mastered a type of intelligence called'analogical reasoning' which was previously believed to be uniquely human. Analogical reasoning means working out a solution to a completely new problem by using experience from previous similar problems. Given one type of test requiring this reasoning, the AI language programme GPT-3 beat the average score among 40 university students.
