If someone asked you how much gasoline to drink for a week of energy you'd probably ask for some context. It's a shitty question, it shouldn't really get an answer.

- Last5Digits 4y agoIf I was an LLM and one of my main tasks was to answer questions, then I would expect a lot of "what if" type abstract queries by bored people. Obviously, people like that don't want a literal answer - the context is crystal clear. It's not a bad question either - it can illustrate the efficiency of the human body, or help you get a better feel for different quantities of energy. It even hedged its bet by very explicitly explaining why consuming gasoline or uranium is a bad idea.
- peteradio 4y agoYea, the hedging is really the impressive part of this IMO. Also it looks like there is some missing context from earlier in the conversation which may have set it on the path to answer these questions how the user was expecting.
