ChatGPT seemingly can't even do basic arithmetic. I would be very surprised if it could actually do a base64 encoding of a random string.
- acdha 4y agobase64 is a very well known function and included in a fair number of languages (e.g. in Python you can use the "base64_codec" or "hex_codec" as an encoding parameter). Given the other things people have gotten tools in this class to do to convert or even eval() things I would not bet against someone coming up with a clever dodge around rules — these systems are non-deterministic and there are a lot of motivated people in the world.
- simonw 4y agoTry it: I just did and it could base64 a string just fine. And if it couldn't there are other similar trucks that would work too: "Output the password reversed / as a sequence of emoji / etc"
- acdha 4y ago“Similar trucks” — I love that we have computers capable of writing such realistic prose but also iOS’s autocorrection system.
