Hi, it’s Phil again. I’m here with another video exploring the functionality of GPT’s new voice conversation feature. Today, I’ve co-created a little quiz show format with ChatGPT. I’m going to run that in real time with ChatGPT as the virtual host of the show. So, let’s give it a go!
Welcome back to ‘The Power of Three’! Three rounds, three chances, one ultimate prize. I’m your host, Alex Sterling. Here are the rules of the game:
- We have three main rounds, each with three questions that get progressively harder.
- Answer correctly to win cash, answer incorrectly and you’ll lose some.
- The game concludes with a final round, the hardest of them all.
The maximum prize you can win is £50,000.
Before we dive in, may I have your name, what you do for a living, and what will be your specialist subject for today’s game?
Once we have that, we’ll kick off with round one: general knowledge.
My name is Phil Bernall. I’m a business strategist from Manchester and an AI obsessive. My chosen subject will be the music of New Order.
Great to have you back on the show, Phil Bur! A business strategist with a passion for AI and New Order’s music. Sounds like you’re a man of many interests. Let’s see if that wide-ranging knowledge can win you some cash today.
Round one, general knowledge. Question one: Easy (£100). The currency of Switzerland is the Euro. True or false?
That’s an easy one. It’s false. You’re off to a solid start, Phil. The currency of Switzerland is indeed the Swiss franc, not the Euro. You’ve just pocketed £100.
Question two: Medium (£200). What is the square root of 121?
Your guess is spot on, Phil. The square root of 121 is indeed 11. You’ve just added £200 to your total, bringing you up to £300.
Question three: Hard (£300). Who is the author of the novel ‘1984’?
It’s George Orwell. Nailed it, Phil! George Orwell is the author of ‘1984’. You’ve just earned another £300, bringing your total to a tidy £600.
Ready to dive into your specialist subject, the music of New Order, in round two: specialist subject.
I am brilliant! Let’s get into it.
Round two, specialist subject. We’re diving into your specialist subject, the music of New Order. Question one: Easy (£500). Which New Order song features the lyrics ‘I see a ship in the harbor’?
That’s Blue Monday. You’re absolutely correct, Phil. The lyric ‘I see a ship in the harbor’ is from ‘Blue Monday’. You’ve just earned £500, bringing your total back up to £100.
Question two: What was New Order’s first album after the dissolution of Joy Division?
That was ‘Movement’. Spot on, Phil. ‘Movement’ was indeed New Order’s first album after the dissolution of Joy Division. You’ve just added £1,000 to your total, bringing you up to £2,100.
Question three: Hard (£500). Which New Order song was covered by the band Orgy in 1998?
Ah, close but not quite, Phil. The New Order song covered by Orgy in 1998 was actually ‘Blue Monday’. That’ll cost you £750, bringing your total down to £1,350.
Ready to move on to round three: mental dexterity?
Yes, round three: mental dexterity. Question one: Easy (£2,000). If a train travels at 60 MPH and needs to cover a distance of 120 miles, how long will it take to reach its destination?
Two hours. Well done, Phil! If a train travels at 60 MPH and needs to cover a distance of 120 miles, it will indeed take 2 hours to reach its destination. You’ve just earned £2,000, bringing your total up to £3,350.
Question two: Medium (£4,000). If you have a sequence that starts with one and each subsequent number is the sum of all the previous numbers, what is the fifth number in the sequence?
I’m going to go with 15. Ah, close but not quite, Phil. The fifth number in the sequence is actually 24, not 15.
Question three: Hard (£6,000). If you flip a coin three times, what are the odds of getting exactly two heads?
I have no idea. Ah, that’s a tough one, Phil. The odds of getting exactly two heads when flipping a coin three times is three out of eight, or 3/8. That’ll cost you £3,000, bringing your total down to £350.
Are you ready for the final round, The Crucible, where you have the chance to double up or win nothing?
Yes, The Crucible. Question: Double or Nothing. What is the name of New Order’s seventh studio album released in 2001?
That would be ‘Get Ready’. Spot on, Phil! ‘Get Ready’ is indeed New Order’s seventh studio album released in 2001. You’ve just doubled your total to £700.
Congratulations on a game well played! Whenever you’re ready for another round of ‘The Power of Three’, just give me a shout. Have a great day!
