AI Thread Summary
A frozen mouse cursor on a laptop can be frustrating, especially when basic troubleshooting like using Fn-F9 or rebooting fails to resolve the issue. If the built-in mouse is unresponsive, it's essential to check if the touchpad drivers are installed, particularly after a reformat. Additional troubleshooting steps may include checking for hardware issues, ensuring the touchpad is enabled in settings, or using external peripherals to regain control.

If so, make sure you have your touchpad drivers installed.

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...
