I thought it would be interesting to ask ChatGPT 4.0 it’s insights between STAR TREK, STAR WARS, and DUNE. As expected it provided a generic answer, however, It will be interesting to ask this same question with the next version as it continues to evolve. OpenAI specifically states ChatGPT capabilities and limitations, but the advancements are incredible. The most recent version of Chat GPT, according to Open AI, is 40% more likely to produce truthful responses and 82% less likely to react to requests for content that is prohibited than Chat GPT-3. In other words, Chat GPT-4 is much less likely to reply to harmful queries, and is much safer to use. ChatGPT is not capable of thinking for itself, it essentially pulls data it can access then compiles a response based on information it’s fed and tagged. It can’t feel, think, decipher or fact-check, yet!
Stephen Wolfram explains in his article “What Is ChatGPT Doing … and Why Does It Work?”, “ChatGPT uses “reasonable continuation” of whatever text it has so far, where by “reasonable” we mean “what one might expect someone to write after seeing what people have written on billions of webpages, etc.” His breakdown is very informative and I suggest you check out the full read.

Without further ado, here is the ChatGPT 4.0 response… To be continued…
Dune, Star Wars, and Star Trek are three of the most well-known science fiction franchises in popular culture. While they all take place in space and feature advanced technology, they have distinct differences in their themes and storytelling.
Dune, as previously mentioned, is known for its intricate world-building and exploration of political and ecological themes. It takes place in a universe where noble houses compete for power and control over the valuable substance known as "spice." The story follows the young nobleman Paul Atreides, who becomes the leader of the Fremen people and leads them in a revolution against the oppressive empire.
Star Wars, on the other hand, is a more action-oriented franchise that focuses on the battle between the evil Empire and the heroic rebels. The story follows the Skywalker family as they fight to restore peace to the galaxy and defeat the Sith, a dark order of Force users who seek to rule the galaxy.
Star Trek is a more utopian science fiction franchise that takes place in a future where humanity has achieved interstellar travel and formed a federation with other alien races. The story follows the crew of the USS Enterprise as they explore new worlds and encounter strange new life forms.
While all three franchises share a common interest in space exploration and advanced technology, Star Trek is more optimistic and focused on humanity's potential for growth and progress, while Dune and Star Wars are more concerned with the dangers of power and the corrupting influence of technology.
In terms of fandom, all three franchises have passionate followings who enjoy the unique aspects of each franchise. Whether it's the political intrigue of Dune, the epic battles of Star Wars, or the optimistic vision of the future in Star Trek, there's something for everyone in these iconic science fiction franchises.
