ChatGPT

How ChatGPT is better than Google search... 

I was discussing with a friend about whether IQ/talent of a person can be developed by hardwork or not.. 

To find out the research conclusions regarding this debate I tried to ask ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com/)

The answer provided by it was concise, accurate and timesaver, also it provided relevant links for the research done on it. 

Here's the part of discussion between ChatGPT and me. 

Me: Can IQ of a person increased by practice and hardwork? I want to know the scientific research about the limitations of increasing talent of a person

ChatGPT: 

The question of whether intelligence can be increased through practice and effort is a subject of much debate in the scientific community. While there is evidence to suggest that certain cognitive abilities can be improved through training and practice, there are also limitations to how much a person's intelligence can be increased.

Research has shown that certain cognitive abilities can be improved through training, such as working memory, attention, and problem-solving skills. For example, studies have found that individuals who engage in tasks that require working memory, such as dual n-back tasks, can improve their working memory capacity.

However, it's important to note that while such training can lead to improvements in specific cognitive abilities, it may not necessarily translate to an increase in overall intelligence or IQ. IQ tests are designed to measure a broad range of cognitive abilities, and while certain abilities may be improved through practice, the overall score on an IQ test may not be significantly affected.

There is also evidence to suggest that genetics play a significant role in determining a person's intelligence. While environment and experience can influence cognitive development, research suggests that genetic factors may account for up to 50% of the variation in intelligence between individuals.

In conclusion, while certain cognitive abilities can be improved through training and practice, there are limitations to how much a person's overall intelligence or IQ can be increased. Additionally, genetic factors play a significant role in determining a person's intelligence.

Me : Please share the links of research papers for support of your answer. 

ChatGPT: 

Here are some research papers that explore the question of whether or not IQ can be increased through practice and training:

Jaeggi, S. M., Buschkuehl, M., Jonides, J., & Perrig, W. J. (2008). Improving fluid intelligence with training on working memory. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 105(19), 6829-6833. https://www.pnas.org/content/105/19/6829

Owen, A. M., Hampshire, A., Grahn, J. A., Stenton, R., Dajani, S., Burns, A. S., ... & Ballard, C. G. (2010). Putting brain training to the test. Nature, 465(7299), 775-778. https://www.nature.com/articles/nature09042

Rudebeck, S. R., & Bor, D. (2017). Cognitive training: fundamentals and new discoveries. Annual review of psychology, 68, 401-425. https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/abs/10.1146/annurev-psych-010416-044101

Klingberg, T. (2010). Training and plasticity of working memory. Trends in cognitive sciences, 14(7), 317-324. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364661310001102

These papers provide evidence that cognitive training can lead to improvements in IQ test scores, although the extent of these gains and their long-term effects are still uncertain. It is important to note that these studies have limitations, and the conclusions drawn from them should be taken in the context of the overall body of research on this topic.

This should look like ..



 
4. Press F10 or Ctrl+X to boot the system using the options you just edited.
Once the system boots, you will be presented with a shell prompt without having to enter any user
name or password:
sh-4.2#

5. Load the installed SELinux policy:
sh-4.2# /usr/sbin/load_policy -i

6. Execute the following command to remount your root partition:
sh4.2# mount -o remount,rw /

7. Reset the root password:
sh4.2# passwd root
When prompted to, enter your new root password and confirm by pressing the Enter key. Enter
the password for the second time to make sure you typed it correctly and confirm with Enter
again. If both passwords match, a message informing you of a successful root password change
will appear.

8. Remount the root partition again, this time as read-only:
sh4.2# mount -o remount,ro /

9. Reboot the system. From now on, you will be able to log in as the root user using the new

Do me a favor.. Lets play Holi..


भारत के चार प्रमुख त्योहारों ( दीपावली, रक्षाबंधन, होली और दशहरा ) में से एक है होली । होली वसंत व प्रेम-प्रणव का पर्व है तथा धर्म की अधर्म पर विजय का प्रतीक है । यह रंगो का, हास-परिहास का भी पर्व है । यह वह त्योहार है, जिसमें लोग क्या करना है, तथा क्या नहीं करना है से मुक्त होकर खुद को स्वतंत्र महसुस करते हैं । यह वह पर्व है, जिसमें आप पुर्ण रुप से स्वच्छंद रुप हो, अपना कार्य करते हैं, चाहे किसी को छेड़ना हो या अजनबी के साथ शरारत करनी हो । इस दिन सारी कटुता, क्रोध व निरादर "बुरा न मानो होली है !" की ऊंची ध्वनि में डूबकर घुल-मिल जाता है । होली को अभी एक सप्ताह बाकी है पर रंगो की उमंग चारो ओर फैलने लगी है । अभी से "होली है !" का शोर उठने लगा है
