A couple of weeks ago I created a ChatGPT chatbot on my tech help website. The bot was meant to help answer people's tech queries: it's ended up fielding questions way outside of its remit. In the fortnight it's been running, the chatbot has been asked how to build a magical potato, how to bring down totalitarian regimes and how to safely remove a remove USB stick from, shall we say, a delicate area. At least that query was tech related... Here's a round-up of the weirdest requests the AI bot has been forced to answer. Even though I explicitly instructed the AI bot not to answer questions that aren't related to tech, it sometimes can't help itself. Such as on this occasion, when it's dragged into a world of utter fantasy: AI: Sure, let's build a magical potato!
