| Medium | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Medium Difficulty Summary This research paper investigates the psychometric properties of GPT-4, a cutting-edge language model. By subjecting it to various tests, the authors reveal interesting insights into its personality traits, which differ from those of humans in several ways. While GPT-4 exhibits honesty and humility more frequently than humans do, it also tends to lean towards masculinity and shows some ambivalent sexism. Additionally, it displays above-average numerical literacy and cognitive reflection abilities for verbal tasks. |
| Low | GrooveSquid.com (original content) | Low Difficulty Summary GPT-4 is a special kind of computer program that can understand and generate human-like text. Scientists tested GPT-4 to see how well it behaves like humans do in certain situations. They found out some cool things! For example, GPT-4 tends to be more honest and humble than people are. It’s also less likely to behave selfishly or show off. However, sometimes it acts a bit sexist or leans towards masculine behaviors. The scientists also tested GPT-4’s math skills and problem-solving abilities – it did pretty well! |
