Für Profis, die sich nicht auf ihren Lorbeeren ausruhen

20 January 2023 - In this well-structured White Paper, Christian Terwiesch (German Operations Management professor at The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania) shares the specific MBA exam questions that they posed to ChatGPT and the answers provided. The professor then grades and evaluates each of the responses produced by the AI. 

(Integrate: Come up with your own answers before checking how the AI did, and how Prof. Terwiesch evaluates the responses. Then consider how you can formulate questions and prompts that would deliver more refined, accurate answers.)

The final question in the white paper is in the "afterthought" section: "What will be the impact of the Chat GPT3 technology on how MBA students are taught. Specifically, how will Chat GPT3 impact MBA education differently from K12 education?" 

Saturn-Day — followed naturally by Sun-day, Moon-day, Mars-day, Mercury-Day, Jupiter-Day and Venus-Day…We’ve learned that while hell and purgatory have limits & loops and billable hours, paradise expands endlessly in response to one’s co-creative spirit.

‘“Our ancestors were ecological polylinguists. To listen was to learn about food, danger, opportunity, and the subtle nuances of ecological time and space, the mastery of which allows all creatures to thrive. To listen was to live and to find meaning…”’

“We have to get out of a certain epistemology…premised on the fact that humans are the only speaking entity, that what distinguishes us is that we mastered language and the others didn’t…we now have studies showing that plants speak, that forests speak”

What we find in most instances is a practitioner of a technique engaged in some form & degree of projection—and some level of competition with other practitioners or even with their students.

So-called ‘unseen’ private thoughts are beginning to show. Interior monologues are becoming unconscious soliloquies. Mental hygiene is becoming as accessible to the senses as physical hygiene.

Always the beautiful answer who asks a more beautiful question.

‘These leave the sense, their learning to display,
And those explain the meaning quite away…’

Style is a very simple matter; it is all rhythm. Once you get that, you can’t use the wrong words…Now this is very profound, what rhythm is, and goes far deeper than words. A sight, an emotion, creates this wave in the mind, long before it makes words to fit it …

Was kann passieren, wenn jemand auf Englisch spricht, aber auf Deutsch denkt:
“The box opened Mr. Schmidt. He was very surprised.”

The illiterate of the twenty-first century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn. 

”more than 90% of the indexed articles in the natural sciences are published in English…(!)
…English will be the language of science for a long time."

“But the Emperor has nothing on at all!” cried a little child. -Hans Christian Andersen

If we focus on this as the revelation, will we question whether the Emperor is even an emperor?

“We hypothesize that to become a successful speaker of two languages requires a fundamental reorganization of the entire language system.“

On the competitive nature of language processing:

‘Courage’ in English comes from Old French ‘corage’ with the Latin, ‘cor’ – meaning heart. Ancient knowledge: courage comes from the heart.

“Cancel culture” oft manifests as an attempt to cast someone “out” as a narrative’s antagonist for a modicum of (temporary) relief from internal struggles. People who have been used by narcissists and who may be understandably angry also are often not aware of how they use others

“First digital tool…that decodes Egyptian hieroglyphs built on machine learning…In the past you would need a team of Data Scientists, a lot of code, and plenty of time…”

British textbook states that one’s goals = cornerstone of personal finance. Germans I’ve asked say: one’s current real circumstances (& balanced budget) should be the cornerstone. Build from ground up with what you have. 

‘Schuld’ means ‘debt’ and it also means ‘guilt’.
