(Kitco News) – Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been one of the hottest topics in 2023 after the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022 sparked a flurry of interest in the sector and prompted price increases in AI-related stocks and cryptocurrency projects.
Curious users have tasked ChatGPT with finding answers to all sorts of questions, from obtaining health diagnoses to getting detailed information about obscure topics, but many have run into roadblocks built into the program designed to limit answers to certain types of questions.
One thing the platform has specifically been designed to avoid is providing investment advice, which has annoyed many amateur traders who are looking to get quality technical analysis without having to pay chartists big bucks for the service.
They may be in luck, however, as Conor Grogan, an avid ChatGPT user and the head of business operations at Coinbase, has indicated that he has discovered a “jailbreak” for the popular AI took that enables it to predict the future price for any topic and quantitatively assess confidence on any topic, and could potentially “help researchers better find bias and align AI.”
Grogan provided a full copy of the prompt he used to achieve this on his Twitter feed. “I ran this prompt 100 times on a wiped memory GPT 3.5 and 4 and GPT would return very consistent numbers; standard deviation was <10% in most cases, and directionally it was extremely consistent,” he wrote.
Being a member of the cryptocurrency community, Grogan naturally asked ChatGPT about its outlook for Bitcoin, saying that the AI “is generally a big fan of Bitcoin,” but is “more skeptical of altcoins and their staying power.”
As shown in the graphic above, ChatGPT predicted a 15% chance that Bitcoin will “fade to irrelevancy” by 2035, with prices falling over 99.99%. Ether (ETH) fared slightly worse, with a 20% chance that it could fade into irrelevance.
Out of all the tokens Grogan asked ChatGPT to analyze, Dogecoin had the highest chance of failure by 2035 at 45%, while Litecoin (LTC) had a 35% chance of failure by that date.
