Bengaluru: Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella recently put the AI chatbot ChatGPT to test by asking it for a list of the most popular South Indian tiffins — light breakfast or tea-time meals.
The list, which included dishes such as idli, dosa and vada, also mentioned biryani.
That did not go down well with Nadella, who told ChatGPT that as a Hyderabadi, the software cannot insult his intelligence by calling biryani a South Indian tiffin.
To this, the software apologised and said, “I am sorry.”
Nadella then continued the conversation and asked it to create a play on idli, dosa and vada, arguing to see who was better. He also asked ChatGPT to make it seem like a Shakespearean play to keep things interesting.
ChatGPT, launched by Elon Musk-funded OpenAI in November 2022, is a chatbot that answers follow-up questions, admits its mistakes and rejects inappropriate requests.
