Can You Trust Machine Learning Chat Applications for Weather Information?
Today, machine learning (ML) applications such as chatGPT are all the rage, with folks worried about the displacement of humans, bogus homework, and more.
So I was not a little curious to evaluate OpenAI's chatGPT abilities in the meteorological realm.
My conclusion: human meteorologists currently don't have much to worry about.
ChatGPT can produce reasonable-sounding prose that is often totally wrong.
For example, I asked it about the origin of the all-important Puget Sound convergence zone (see below).
