When typing prompts into ai models how do we know ai is defining words in the same way we are?
What better way to find out than to ask. As humans we don't realize how much precision is needed when working with or discussing artificial intelligence. The definition of a word often holds more generative power than the word itself. This study shows differences between how chat GPT defines words and how we (humans, architects, students, etc..) interpret a words meaning.
How do we need to adapt in communicating with ai? Or do our misunderstandings create unexpected opportunities?
