For those of you who have been loyal followers of Microsoft's Flight Simulator series (I have every version since FS98 and am also currently a student pilot), you may or may not have heard the latest news regarding the all-new version coming out in late 2006.

Right now it's called "Flight Simulator X." This is the 10th version, so the X is fitting. Microsoft just recently released some Q&A's about the simulator (http://www.avsim.com/pages/0106/FSX/qanda.html) and some screenshots (http://www.avsim.com/pages/0106/FSX/fsx_thumbs.html) .

I for one am very excited that Microsoft is continuing to produce, in my opinion, the best "game" they've ever made. Hopefully, all of you aviation enthusiasts out there will be as well. :biggrin:

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
