Reply to comment by jesusallin666 in Are some North American bat species more likely to reside in man-made structures than others, or is the choice of habitat typically consistent across all bat species? by OrganicDroid
My understanding is bats don't actively hunt mosquitoes, as it takes more energy than they recoup. They will eat them out of opportunity, of course, but they go after slightly larger bugs.

I had that initial reaction as well, but then again, he has a developmental disability so I guess it's not quite the same? Like he's not mentally a 23 year old, nor is he living his life the same way a 23 year old would be typically.

Reply to comment by neelankatan in ChatGPT really surprised me today. by GlassAmazing4219
The whole point of ChatGPT is that its not just showing you information from other sources, everything is "original". Its trying to tell you what it thinks you want to hear based on what it has "observed" in the wild. So it has probably heard the response "It holds its cards too close to its chest" and decided that is a response that would make sense. As iterations go on and it receives feedback, it should get a better idea of how these responses work and whether people like them or not, and it will get better. Even just a couple of years ago if you asked a chatbot to write you a poem, you might use one line out of ten, then ask it again, use another line, etc until you have collected enough responses that make sense or are good. ChatGPT, on the other hand, tends to yield responses that are good enough the first time and can piece together a cohesive poem, story, article, etc.
