AI-Web3 World | I Gave ChatGPT a Picture Composition Test, and the Result...🤯

OpenAI launched ChatGPT-4.0 on March 15th. What is the biggest difference between ChatGPT-4.0 and ChatGPT-3.5? Why are people willing to use the paid version of ChatGPT-4.0?

On March 15th, OpenAI introduced its latest ChatGPT-4.0. A day later, Chinese search giant Baidu launched its "domestic ChatGPT" called "Ernie Bot" in Beijing. Baidu CEO Li Yanhong personally demonstrated the product, but the demonstration of "Ernie Bot" was not a live demo; instead, a pre-recorded video was played. As a result, Baidu's stock price in Hong Kong plunged by 10% immediately.

Comparing "Ernie Bot" to ChatGPT-4.0 or even ChatGPT-3.0 is believed to be a losing battle. Experts estimate that it will take "Ernie Bot" at least 2-3 years to catch up with ChatGPT.

People are now focusing on how powerful ChatGPT-4.0 is, how big the difference is compared to ChatGPT-3.5, and why people would choose to use the paid version of ChatGPT-4.0, among other things. There is a lot of information comparing data online, but nothing beats personal experience to truly feel the difference in power.

After testing both the old and new versions of ChatGPT in recent days, including their Chinese and English translation and writing capabilities, ChatGPT-4.0 has shown significant improvement. You get a sense that it has "grown up" a lot, especially in terms of its accuracy in answering questions and executing commands, as well as its language expression.

What attracted me the most was its image recognition ability. Last night, I conducted a test, giving both ChatGPT-3.5 and ChatGPT-4.0 a "picture composition" exam. I provided the following photo and asked both versions to write a story based on the image.

Picture Composition Test Result

The ChatGPT-3.5 wrote the following story:

When the heavy rain poured down, a little snail crawled alone on the grass, sighing softly. It had always longed to have a big shell like a snail, to protect itself from the wind and rain.

Suddenly, the little snail saw a brown branch and decided to climb up to take shelter from the rain. When it reached the top of the branch, a strong wind blew, knocking it down to the ground. The little snail was scared, knowing that it needed a strong shell to protect itself.

At that moment, an old snail appeared before the little snail and told it, "Child, you already have your own shell; it's on your body." The little snail asked in confusion, "Where? I can't find it." The old snail replied with a smile, "Your shell is your confidence; as long as you believe in yourself, you can overcome any difficulty."

Encouraged by the old snail's words, the little snail began to climb slowly, feeling the strength and courage within itself. Since then, the little snail was no longer afraid of the wind and rain, for it knew it had a strong shell called confidence.

And the ChatGPT-4.0 wrote the following story:

"Between Light and Shadow"

In a distant village, there was a mysterious forest with special light and shadow. These light and shadow seemed to have magical powers, said to make people's wishes come true. However, there were also rumors that the forest was full of dangers, so the villagers kept their distance and never dared to approach.

One day, a young girl named Lisa, in order to save her sick mother, decided to venture into the forest to find the power of light and shadow. She took her mother's hand-woven shawl and embarked on this perilous journey.

In the forest, Lisa encountered many wonderful creatures: kind forest elves, mischievous little fairies, and wise old trees. With their help, she gradually discovered the secret between light and shadow.

Along the way, Lisa found a huge tree hollow, emitting dazzling light. She stepped into the hollow and saw the light and shadow swirling around her like a dream. In that light and shadow, she felt a strong force, as if able to fulfill her wish.

Lisa mustered her courage and told her wish to the light and shadow: to heal her sick mother. The light and shadow listened and told her in a gentle voice that the realization of her wish required a price. Lisa agreed without hesitation, willing to pay any price to save her mother.

Thus, the light and shadow slowly disappeared, and Lisa felt a warm force enter her body. When she returned to the village, her mother miraculously recovered. However, her eyes lost their light, and she became a blind person who could never see the light again.

Despite this, Lisa had no regrets. She traded her bravery and love for her mother's health, and that was enough for her. Since then, Lisa learned to cherish everything around her and considered her mother's woven shawl as her most precious treasure.

And that mysterious forest, still between light and shadow, awaited the next brave adventurer.

After reviewing the compositions of these two "students", who do you think will come out on top?

Clearly, it's ChatGPT-4.0. Not only does it have image recognition capabilities and good writing skills, but it also comes up with topics for essays, a pleasantly unexpected feature.

I believe that image recognition capability is a significant advancement. This implies that there will be more possibilities for ChatGPT's development in images and even videos in the future. While it can only generate text content now, it might be able to generate high-quality AI images and videos in the future, which wouldn't be surprising.

As ChatGPT has grown to version 4.0, many people are impressed, but there are also concerns. OpenAI, the "parent" of ChatGPT, has not been as forthcoming with data as before, perhaps due to commercial considerations. Many experts say they haven't seen the ceiling of ChatGPT's capabilities yet.

Regardless of how powerful artificial intelligence is, the most crucial aspect is how it's used. If used wisely, it can help both oneself and others, bringing about positive outcomes; otherwise...

The speed of modern technological advancements can be described as covering a thousand miles in a day, if not ten thousand. How humanity wisely uses a myriad of technological tools is the most critical issue in this era. Whether AI brings blessings or curses to humankind is too early to tell. This is not a question for AI, but rather for the creators and users of AI.
