Perplexity Describes HWFO Better Than ChatGPT
Screenshots for a Monday Morning
Perplexity on HWFO, seems very accurate:
Chat GPT 4o mini on HWFO, seems to confuse egregores with ghosts, invents material from whole cloth, and is afraid to mention guns at all:
Perplexity.ai wins again.
OF COURSE I had to test this.
The blog and Substack Handwaving Freakoutery (HWFO) primarily delves into topics like culture wars, futurism, apocalyptic scenarios, and the complexities of issues such as gun rights and social conflicts. Its content often focuses on controversial and polarizing topics, offering analyses on political ideologies, media influence, and societal trends. HWFO is known for discussing the intersection of culture, politics, and technology with a sharp focus on modern societal tensions, like the ongoing "culture wars" and the dynamics of public opinion in the face of complex global issues.
The blog also touches on game theory in conflict zones, media manipulation, and public perceptions, presenting provocative opinions on how contemporary media and political landscapes shape social behavior and ideologies.
---> that's what ChatGPT (I think the 4o version)
Seems ok, really pretty spot on though not as thorough as Perplexity, and with less emphasis on the amount of space you devote to gun stuff -- and it does mention culture wars and gun rights in the very beginning. What prompt did you use? I asked: What is HWFO (handwaving freakoutery) blog and Substack about?
Claude 3.5 sonnet is just as bad. It refuses to engage with any written material questioning man-made climate change. It will not help write thriller-style fiction that involves the use of guns, knives, or fists. And ignores prompts it doesn't like. Grammarly is not much better, particularly when writing about climate change. And I paid for both, which I must remind Claude of every time I attempt to write military thriller-type fiction.
