As a startup advisor in this age of the entrepreneur, I see many more startups, but innovation is still hard to find. The most common proposals I hear are for yet another social networking site ( 200 on Wikipedia ), or another dating site/app ( over 1500 in the USA ). Startups which display real innovation, such as alternative energy sources and new medical treatments, are still rare.

You’ve probably noticed there are questions that ChatGPT won’t answer. Questions that the developers deem illegal or inappropriate are kiboshed. The ‘P’ in the title refer’s to ‘pre-trained’ – which believe it or not includes telling the model which questions not to answer. But because this is a Large Language Model, you can use language to get around the training – to trick ChatGPT into giving you what you want.
