I wonder what kind of line person ChatGPT would be:

Me:
Which is easier to refuel: a high-wing or a low-wing airplane?

ChatGPT:
Refueling an aircraft, whether it's a high-wing or low-wing design, follows specific procedures, and the ease of refueling is not significantly different between the two. The key factor in ease of refueling is the design of the aircraft and the equipment used, rather than whether it's high-wing or low-wing. Here are some considerations for both:
High-Wing Aircraft:
  1. High-wing aircraft typically have their fuel tanks located in the wings above the fuselage. This design can make it easier to access and refuel because the fuel filler ports are often more accessible from the ground.
  2. Gravity assists in fuel flow from the fuel filler ports into the tanks, which can simplify the refueling process.
  3. Ground equipment such as fuel trucks and hoses are designed to accommodate high-wing aircraft.
Low-Wing Aircraft:
  1. Low-wing aircraft, on the other hand, have fuel tanks in the wings below the fuselage. This design can make it slightly less convenient to access the fuel filler ports from the ground.
  2. Specialized equipment like ladders and fuel hoses with swiveling nozzles may be required to reach and refuel low-wing aircraft efficiently.
 
at least we know it’s still wrong….or only gives a partial answer. not only does it know us, it talks like us!

Just like a TV news person, it speaks with complete confidence and authority, right or wrong. If it can be coupled with an AI animation of someone in a blue tie and generic haircut, that entire line of work could be automated.

3 and 4 and 5 are wrong,it’s the opposite.
 
I had to remind it that it was ignoring an important stipulation before it figured it out and gave me the correct answer.
Now it is correct.

how does an airplane wing generate lift

An airplane wing generates lift through a combination of several aerodynamic principles, primarily Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law of motion. Here's a simplified explanation of how this works:
  1. Shape of the Wing: The key to generating lift is the shape of the wing, also known as the airfoil. Airplane wings are typically designed with a curved upper surface and a flatter lower surface. This shape is essential for generating lift.
  2. Bernoulli's Principle: As air flows over and under the wing, it travels at different speeds. The curved upper surface makes the air above the wing move faster than the air beneath it. According to Bernoulli's principle, faster-moving air has lower pressure, while slower-moving air has higher pressure. Thus, the pressure above the wing is lower than the pressure below it.
  3. Pressure Difference: This pressure difference creates an upward force on the wing, pushing it in the upward direction. This is what we perceive as lift. The greater the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces, the more lift is generated.
  4. Angle of Attack: The angle at which the wing meets the oncoming air, called the angle of attack, also plays a crucial role. By adjusting the angle of attack, the pilot can control the lift generated. When the angle of attack is increased, the wing generates more lift, but there's a limit to this before the wing can stall (lose lift).
  5. Newton's Third Law: As air is deflected downward by the wing (in accordance with Bernoulli's principle), there's an equal and opposite reaction, as per Newton's third law. The downward deflection of air creates an upward force on the wing, resulting in lift.
  6. Flaps and Ailerons: Aircraft are equipped with flaps and ailerons, which allow the pilot to adjust the wing's shape and control surfaces. Flaps can increase lift during takeoff and landing, and ailerons help control the aircraft's roll (tilting side to side).
In summary, an airplane wing generates lift through the combination of the wing's shape (airfoil), the angle of attack, and the principles of Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law of motion. These factors work together to create the necessary upward force to keep the aircraft in the air.

1 Total horse****.
2 Yea, but why does the air move faster?
3 Actually true.
4 True.
5 Starts out true, moves beyond horse****, then back to true.
6 True.

Summary Mostly horse****.

Not impressed.

If the airplane has zero airspeed, what's making the wheels spin at all?

The treadmill would? Like if I place a Hot Wheels vehicle on a treadmill and hold my finger on the rear to hold it in place

But the treadmill only matches the speed of the wheels. And the wheels only turn if the airplane moves forward.

Oh, I understand.
I guess we need to see the preceeding questions to determine if a catalyst gets the whole thing going. Or is this a logical paradox? Let's discuss for the next 500 posts in this thread! :lol:

Just ask ChatGPT.

"ChatGPT gets its information from the vast amount of text data it was trained on. It was trained on a diverse range of internet text up until September 2021, which includes books, websites, articles, and other written content. This extensive training data allows ChatGPT to generate text and provide information on a wide array of topics. However, it's important to note that ChatGPT does not have the ability to access the internet or retrieve real-time information, so any information it provides is based on the knowledge available up to its training cutoff date in September 2021."
 
Haha, we're having the same GPT-4 shiny-new-toy workweek :D I'm trying to teach it to speak like a racist instead of the default "mansplaining voice" but it's not going well.

I keep feeding it random images from my google photo roll and it seems to alternate between "huh, sharp eye" and "wtf are you smoking?" for me, but it's neat how fast this is improving. Still not useful to me except in niche cases.

Bonus points for anything with the hojos to call a GAMIjector placard a "cautionary label" :D

It was very kind to let me off of the hook for the condition of my hangar though!

Also if you have access to the Dall-E 3 plugin, it can generate some really amazing things with little prompting. :D

"Oil painting: A bustling scene at a small airport on a sunny day. The sky is vibrant, with clouds forming peculiar shapes and patterns akin to Bosch's Northern Renaissance style. In the background, a Cirrus airplane is visible, descending gracefully under its whole-airplane parachute. General aviation planes, some with unique and surreal designs, are prepped for flight. Nearby, a whimsical tree has been transformed into a pancake-serving station, with a diverse crowd gathered around, including some creatures straight out of Bosch's paintings."

It even wrote/massaged the prompt for me too. I only input these:

"a typical sunny day at a small airport with general aviation planes. pancakes are offered for breakfast nearby. in the style of bosch"

1697234566015.png

Then I refined with

"the fourth one is excellent. can we add somewhere in the background, airborne, a cirrus airplane descending under its whole-airplane parachute?"

Which generated the above, which I cannot stop laughing about this afternoon. :D Those are definitely "cirrus clouds"
 
Earlier this year I messed around with animals flying, without much success

Salvador Dali would be envious, not to mention Hieronymus Bosch

Well it got wing configuration wrong...
But hey, it complemented me on maintaining the aircraft well based on the reflectivity of the plane!

That's a much more elaborate prompt than I've used before. I'll have to give that a shot!
It's nice to know GPT has access now to not only the internet and images for queries, but apparently an unlimited supply of LSD and mushrooms to really nail all the nuanced detail.
 
I was playing with llama2 back in August. It didn't know much about Cessnas:
> what are the differences between the cessna 172 and 175?

The Cessna 172 and 175 are both popular light single-engine aircraft produced by Cessna Aircraft Company. While they share many similarities, there are also some key differences between the two models. Here are some of the main differences:

1. Engine: The Cessna 172 has a Continental O-360-A4 engine, while the Cessna 175 has a more powerful Lycoming IO-360-B1E engine. The 175's engine produces 225 horsepower, compared to the 172's 180 horsepower.
2. Performance: The Cessna 175 has better performance overall, with a higher cruise speed (180 knots vs 160 knots for the 172), higher climb rate (1,000 fpm vs 700 fpm for the 172), and longer range (4,000 nm vs 3,500 nm for the 172).
3. Fuel Capacity: The Cessna 175 has a larger fuel tank, with a capacity of 60 gallons compared to the 172's 42 gallons. This means the 175 can fly for longer periods without needing to refuel.
4. Landing Gear: The Cessna 175 has a retractable landing gear, while the 172 has fixed gear. The retractable gear on the 175 provides better aerodynamics and can improve performance at high speeds.
5. Avionics: The Cessna 175 is typically equipped with more advanced avionics than the 172, including a glass cockpit with a primary flight display and multi-function displays.
6. Price: The Cessna 175 is generally more expensive than the 172, due to its more powerful engine and advanced avionics.

Overall, the Cessna 175 offers better performance and more advanced features compared to the Cessna 172, but it also comes with a higher price tag. The choice between the two aircraft will depend on the specific needs and preferences of the pilot or owner.

Sorry quick diversion.

Maybe image comprehension still needs a little work.

I didn't use to like the saying, but a friend used to always say "You can't teach a pig to sing. It doesn't work, and it annoys the pig." It applies to a lot of stuff.
