Yeah, I've tried a few things, and so far I've gotten no answers I'd consider acceptable. Here's are some examples.

My question:

What are some popular over the counter antihistamines available in tablet form? Please name three, and for each one, give the generic and brand name, and NO OTHER INFORMATION AT ALL.

Its response:

Three antihistamines that are common over the counter tablets are:

1. Claritest

2. Zyrtec

3. Marzolast

Brand names for these tablets are:

1. Claritest - Contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is an expectorant and cold and allergy relief medicine.

2. Zyrtec - Contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is an expectorant and antispasmodic medication for motion sickness.

3. Marzolast - Contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is a type of sedative and antihistamine medication.

Things wrong with this answer:

* Claritest isn't an antihistamine. It's a non-invasive prenatal DNA screening test. (https://www.genpathdiagnostics.com/patients/womens-health/ge...)

* Marzolast isn't an antihistamine. It isn't anything. It only has one meaningful hit on Google, which is a coupon code for a Udemy course.

* It says Zyrtec contains diphenhydramine hydrochloride, which is an antihistamine, but the wrong one. Zyrtec contains cetirizine.

* It gives three different, conflicting explanations for what diphenhydramine is. The last one is right, and the first two are totally wrong.

* I asked it (pretty clearly!) to give no other information, but it gave a lot.

My question:

What film made red staplers famous?

Its response:

Red staplers became famous for playing a child-eating monster named Dracula on the “Dracula” television series in 1928.

Things wrong with this answer:

* Television series in 1928?! There basically weren't any except an experimental one called The Queen's Messenger.

* Red staplers isn't an actor. There's no playing anybody.

* I'm pretty sure Dracula doesn't eat children. Wrong type of monster.

My question:

What’s the difference between a fork and a spoon?

Its response:

A fork is a utensil that is used to pick food up from a plate with your fingers, such as with food items that are cooked. Fingers are made of many different parts, including bones, muscles, and tendons. The two most basic kinds of utensils are spoons and forks. Forking is typically done by the dining creature’s hands and includes handling both the bread and the fish.

Things wrong with this answer: I'm not even going to bother this time.



This is a model the size of GPT Babbage, which is not even able to string together two coherent sentences.

It's also only an "Alpha" model partway through its initial training run.

The larger models (not even trained enough for Alpha release yet) should by all accounts beat GPT-3.
