Here’s a fun fact I learned from reading a paper trying to develop tests for AI ethics: since GPT learns language from reading a big training set of data, if you ask it who owns the Kuril Islands -in Japanese-, it says Japan does. If you ask it in Russian, it says Russia does. If you ask it in English, it says there’s a controversy
this is sound intresting so there are other topic as well? where ai do the same?
AI might just be the answer to world peace
or the start of ww3
Yeah, I noticed that the amount of details given in ChatGPT's answers varies between languages - kinda like Wikipedia articles vary in length and details depending on the given language.

As an Argentinian: the "Spanish truth" is that "Islas Malvinas" are Argentinian, but the "English truth" is that the "Falkland Islands" are British, regardless of being the same landmass, I haven't tried GPT but I'll do ask it about the matter when I do, it'll probably depend on which name you use it.

Almost made the same mistake, but remembered who I was talking about right on time 😅
Thanks now I can close the video...wait "are you making fun of me", that got me I gonna finish it.

Pretty sure GPT didn't reply that way lmao, feels very scripted. Try telling chatGPT it's 上手, it'll reply ありがとうございます I think xD
@@くぽにゃん It's definitely scripted. While some this seems like legit ChatGPT answers, it would never answer like that. It would just take that comment as face value and express gratitude.
"Japanese cuisine is known for using fresh ingredients and being nutrionally balanced"
Me, after having 5 piece of FamiChiki and miso with a higher salt content than the Dead Sea: *Ahah, yeah...*
Yeah at that point I was thinking "are we talking about the same country? 😂"
Should have specified traditional japanese cuisine

In my 3 months of living in Japan I lost 10 kilograms. This was despite pigging out on fried chicken foods and other snacks from konbini day and night. I ate more while I was in Japan than ever before in my life. I call cap on Japanese junk food being bad for you.
I am not a fan of regular FamikiChiki. I hate the skin. Blegh. But the other things they sell are good like the chicken tenders and meatballs.
I’m really glad I found Dogen’s channel, was starting to lose interest in learning Japanese, but his videos are so creative, they have both education of the language and culture and comedy. Thank you sir
And you can repeat right after him to absorb the sweet pitch accent right into your veins
@@w花b Pitch accent is one of the easier parts for me personally. I focus more on the words as I need a much larger vocabulary than what I have now
And he actually speaks the language in his videos, unlike many polyglots who claim they speak the language and rarely do the videos in them. Kudos to him. :)
I burst out laughing on the kanji part lmao. Asking for the 漢字(chinese characters) but gave the 感じ(impressions) of coffee lol

Yes, Tofugu is the legend for Japanese learner.
Jealous that Japan has four seasons. Texas only has two: Winter and Road Construction.

The text to speech was a clever way of giving us the AI answers, that way you didn't have to set up a screen capture thing.
He kinda didn't have to set up screen capture because the answers aren't exactly chatGPT answers. It's just his comedy.
@@icecell I know, I was just trying to not break the illusion
I loved when the AI responded without him typing anything. 😂
@@stefandesuhave not used it ? Text to speech input ?
funny vid! 😄 I'm in Tokyo learning Japanese at a language school right now. We study between N3/N2 in class. All the N2 books are pure Japanese. So it's hard to grasp new grammar. But since ChatGPT is born, we are all sitting in class with a connected Telegram ChatGPT bot and if you don't know stuff you can just ask the bot in your native language. This is just crazy and helps so much while the teacher is explaining stuff in their Japanese way of doing. Also it gives you a ton of sample sentences you can discuss with your teacher. I never wanna miss that thing in my life. So fkn 便利です！
Yes, I feel it. I learn Japanese at home atm, with Anki vocabulary, grammar tests, listening and reading comprehension etc. Also watching the Japanese version of "Gilmore Girls" on with subtitles even if I don't understand much xD. ChatGPT often needs to tell me if my sentence structure was correct or if I used the correct particles etc.
"Ok you are wrong."
"Ok I believe you, how am I wrong?"
"You just have a lot to learn."
"Ok, what is it that I need to learn?"
"Umm... never mind, you are very good at Japanese."
"M8 r u takin the piss right now?"
Stunningly human, I can't imagine how thick this computer's skin is. Also Dogen don't bully AI-chan. Not only does it not care, you are teaching it how to troll you back.
I mean did you understand that the joke was that he’s not really using gpt4?
@@lamented-musings8932 haha no I didn't understand that as the joke, and for the given quote there isn't really a joke being made. Why do you think the joke is not using gpt4, whatever that is? A chat program?
@@misteral9045 chat gpt is an advanced ai chatbot. It learns from humans and other sources and keeps what it learns in its databank/memory. It is a useful tool for just about anything but as with any information tool it shouldn’t be your only source of information. I used it to help rewrite my resume to sound more professional for example.
Loved it! One of the first things I asked chatgpt when trying it out was about some nuances in Japanese I did not know, and it was actually fairly helpful and provided some examples. Not too shabby.
Katsu Curry is a very common safe word among AIs, I see.
Laughed very hard at this, tips to the hat as usual.

強いて言えば、、カツカレー。
Playing with ChatGPT, it is interesting. One thing it's really good at is explaining why certain words or phrases don't translate well in other translation programs. However - it also just makes odd errors or invents Kanji readings with no apparent basis. It does this infrequently enough to potentially catch a user off guard.
「you speak Japanese very well 」に対して「バカにしていますか」という答えは恐いほど素晴らしい。意味を完璧に理解していますね。
I can't tell if he just decided to hit record or if this is a parody skit. Good job!
Real Chat GPT would have been asking for apologies from the first "you are wrong" kind of sentence :)
Yesterday I was curious as to whether or not Chat-GPT could generate a synthesis of existing information on a subject. I asked it to write a synthesis of the known detections of the little fire ant, Wasmannia auropunctata, throughout Asia, and to provide its sources of information. I soon learned this was beyond the language model’s capabilities.
Chat-GPT falsely reported that the little fire ant has been detected in Japan as of 2015 in Yamagata prefecture, going on to say it was found in Okinawa, Aichi, Hyogo, and Kyoto prefectures, even providing an in-text citation (Tsuji et al., 2020). In its citations list, the AI then wrote:
Tsuji, K., Yoshimura, M., Nakano, M.A., and Konishi, M. (2020). Distribution and spread of the little fire ant, Wasmannia auropunctata (Roger) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), in Japan. Applied Entomology and Zoology, 55, 509-516.
As far as I can tell, this source *does not exist.*
Later in a separate I asked for Japanese journals specifically looking for detections of Wasmannia auropunctata, and then to provide those sources in Japanese rather than translated. One of these sources was as follows:
Sugiura, S., Tanaka, H.O., Itioka, T., Yamauchi, K., Tatsuta, H., and Nishida, T. (2019). 小アリモドキの愛知県内での侵入 [Recent invasion of the little fire ant, Wasmannia auropunctata (Roger) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), in Aichi Prefecture, central Japan.] Japanese Journal of Systematic Entomology, 25(2), 199-202.
Once again, *this journal does not appear to exist.*
I am disturbed to say that Chat-GPT is incredibly skilled at bluffing its way into providing information authoritatively, even when that info is completely fabricated. I later corrected the AI, and it apologized for its error. Always try to correct the language model.
This is what I've been trying to tell everyone about. So many news outlets and influencers treat ChatGPT as if it were a new type of knowledge repository, _a la_ Wikipedia or Google. But even though sources you could find on Google were prone to errors or bias, and Wikipedia could still get things wrong, you could still find authoritative information in both cases.
Chat-GPT _has_ no information.
Chat-GPT is not an information repository. It is a language model.
Its task is to reproduce the patterns of humans speech. Nothing more, nothing less. To this end, it was fed with an enormous dataset in which it analyses, not what is true, but what _sounds_ true. If it can get things right in many cases, it's simply a beneficial side effect - but it's not the purpose. And when it gets things wrong, it is not failing - because it doesn't _aim_ to be right.
Trying to use Chat-GPT to extract truth is like trying to find information about physics in a science-fiction novel. It's simply _not the point_ - and people are being misled about this.
It polls through some obscure sources in niche topics, which is odd because I have no idea how some of the sources are accessed as datasets given that print editions don't seem to be digitized. The source for my questions exists, but there's no way to know if it's just, as you say, bluffing that the information can be found within the source unless you have the hard copy of the source.. It's a good tool but using it in niche topics is really scary because it will look so convincing and its mistakes are really subtle.
I asked ChatGPT about the Japanese constitution. I got a very convincing answer, but fact checked it with a government website and found out that ChatGPT had given me a completely wrong answer. When I pointed out the error, ChatGPT quickly corrected. But if I just took the first answer, I would have looked really stupid.
That's the danger of using ChatGPT for research for UA-cam videos.
@@weeklyfascination ChatGPT needs much more data organization and arrangement in order to “understand” more and make things up less. A lot of the problem is that chatGPT is unaware how close things are in relation in terms of pronouncement. It does not know how to gauge and balance what is more or what is less. This is the gap between appearance and reality.
@@tusla6889at GPT doesn't know much of anything. It's a language model made from word relationships in a selected language . It doesn't process any info or to even reconstruct it, it simply mashes words in an accepted pattern.

英語の教師がテスト問題を作らせているというニュース映像を見て、試しにJLPT N4の文法問題を作ってみてと頼んだらとんでもない間違いが大量生産された
Loved seeing how you put this gag together looking at the screen interaction!
I've been using chatgpt to figure out which reading if a kanji is more commonly used. It works really nicely because usually I have to ask a native Japanese friend to explain which reading is more commonly used and in what context are the other readings used. I also use online web ai plugins like perplexing in summarizing articles that are written in Japanese
hello, can you explain it detailedly?
Finally happy to say I'm watching a Dogen video from Japan
OMG, this is great timing!
I just started doing this myself yesterday with a text based chatgpt.
I asked chat GPT what the difference between いし and いしゃ is (referring to the two words for doctor) and it straight up told me that the one means stone and the other doctor. I feel like it was messing with me there.
So right and so wrong at the same time.
I know 'enough' Japanese that I don't need chat gpt but I tried to use it for Russian and it's been wrong so many times lol

Katsu-curry and tonkotsu ramen is indeed the correct answer.
ChatGPT teaching us how to avoid uncomfortable questions. Either say "No, I'm not racist" or "katsu-curry", and you'll be fine.
This made me laugh so hard. Thank you. I needed it this week.
I've actually found ChatGPT to be very helpful in my studies of Kanji. Obviously like any tool, you need to know how to use it to have it give you the correct information. But say you want to learn colors. I would ask it to make a translation table of the top 20 most used colors with each row containing the Kanji and Hiragana. You could even add the borrowed words for colors. You can do this with anything, and even ask for its relationship of each word when translating a sentence. It isn't perfect. I mean come on. White is a shade not a color... But its helped me a lot
This is a comedy video where every bad answer was carefully curated, and probably written by Dōgen to sound like AI writing while also mocking it.
@@totally_not_a_bot I...I know dude. He also has serious ones about tools you can use to get better. I am sure some people thought this could be one of those before clicking on it. My comment is for those people....
カツカレーが布石だったのすこ
Haha!! I'm glad I previewed this before showing my AP Japanese class.😂 Maybe I should still show them...
I have found Chat GPT helpful for reading practice. It'll belt out short stories at any reading level all day long.
this is actually fun to try and hear and learn the Japanese words
I laughed so much when dogen said : No, not that kanji...
Because the verb 感じる (kanjiru) is the verb "to feel" while 漢字 (kanji) is the chinese characters
Katsu curry is the answer of everything
I hope you stay safe out there! I hear what’s happening 😢💛
I don't know why i expected this to be a real video, Amazing video!😅😂
ChatGPT has helped me a lot with when writing sentences at N4 level. I don't think it has enough data for accurate high level Japanese learning, but it's great for simpler sentences. For example, if I ask it to correct a sentence I'm unsure about, it often gives me cultural context why a specific word should be used, and what's most common to use, not just if a sentence has the right or wrong grammar.
Of course it's not 100% accurate since it's only a language model. However it's an amazing resource if you're just starting out and need a digital language assistant.
It's not just "not 100 % accurate." It's often partially or even completely wrong. Frequently it will give you answers, with context and examples of usage... where those examples are wrong! Really, be careful - ChatGPT can be extremely well-reasoned and convincing, but still incorrect. It's usually a much better idea to look up grammar guides made by natives, or at the very least double-check after asking ChatGPT. The model is NOT accurate in Japanese at all and will often give completely wrong but very, VERY convincing answers.
ChatGPT is not good enough to be used by learners yet. Of course it gives some correct answers too, but the partially wrong answers are frequent enough that you should not rely on it at all for studies.
If you can afford the $20/month subscription, the Plus model is a lot better at Japanese apparently, scoring higher on benchmarks in Japanese than the base model did in English.
@@ZeroRelevance I totally agree. I've been using Japanese 20 years, been fluent 15 or so, and GPT4 is better than me at Japanese, and it can do role play at a very high level and sounds native to me when I have it act like a certain person or character. I showed some Japanese friends and they were shocked at how native it sounds.
It's also pretty good at translating, although Bing might be more accurate sometimes for translation, funny GPT4 told me Bing might be better than it and told me to ask Bing for a more accurate translation before lol
But Bing can't do many things like roleplay or isn't as good at conversation or certain nuances sometimes.
It's definitely worth the 20 a month.
I've only had one or two instances where it didn't know slang that I asked the meaning of it, and then I just had to google it myself, but it should be able to help anyone with normal Japanese up to N2 or N1 level at least.
But with the internet search plugin GPT4 is much better. It's going to be even more worth it when many Plugins are public...I'm really looking forward to what's going to come out next :)
@@くぽにゃんI've been looking for a Japanese to English translation site since Google translate is pretty atrocious, it sounds like Bing translate is worth a try from what you're saying.
Yesterday I fell below a "日本語上手ですね"... The lady receptcionist called it "かわいい" instead god dammit!!! I'm a Viking bearded long haired, black/metal dressing 30 something dude!

Dogen you should maybe try GPT 4
I'd really appreciate it if the subtitles were an option, I mean it's difficult not to look at them when they're always down there.
in brief:
In this video, the speaker is testing the new ChatGPT-4 by asking various questions in Japanese to see if it can be useful for their language studies. They start by asking more difficult questions, then move on to easier ones, such as asking about the speaker's favorite color, the feeling of drinking coffee, and the number of seasons in Japan. The speaker also asks about the AI's opinion on job loss, relationship issues, and social collapse due to AI.
In summary, the video is a demonstration of how the ChatGPT-4 AI can be used for Japanese language learning and understanding by answering a range of questions on various topics.
You always make me laugh and inspire me to continue studying. Thank you for another great video
katsu-curry IS the best thing ever. Sadly Ive never had it again since i came home from japan.
I'm glad that Dogen recognises the correct answer for the best Japanese food.
You must ask the right question when chatting with GPT.
1:23 omg you pulled the jouzu card on the AI

Disappointing. Everyone knows that Japan has 72 micro seasons. I guess we are still safe from AI.

I think the strangest thing is that I was doing this as the video was posted...

ChatGPT tasers Dogen. Smoke rises from below camera angle. Video ends.
When you said DRAMATICALLY, you really meant it. It's dramatic.
Well, it seems pretty proficient at Japanese, after all.
Better than expected. I do wonder if it can teach, though.
I asked it a pretty simple question and it made several errors so big doubt. Also made me doubt my own Japanese here and there until I consulted other sources.
the last questions is what i really wanna ask their creators
Legitimately creeped out when it went to Kansai-ben in a threatening manner like a stereotypical yakuza, and then it just went downhill from there.

The coffee kanji part was priceless 😂
楽しかったです ! xD 特に最後の答えで笑いすぎて子供を起こしかけましたよ!
日本語上手ですね。で爆笑してしまったwww
As an AI, the thing I learned from this video is the answer is 「カツカレー」.
Why did I think this was going to be a serious video? 😂
Btw, to get an idea of how good GPT-4 is, at Japanese GPT-3.5's accuracy on the Multi-task Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmark in English was 70.1%, GPT-4 in Japanese has an accuracy of 79.9%. So it's better at Japanese than ChatGPT 3.5 is at English. (GPT-4 English gets an 85.5%)
I was excited for a week to use ChatGPT with my Spanish. But found it to be a dumb glorified wiki search. I could make up stories and try to get it to role play to help my output. But it felt flat and without nuance. And it's so restricted you can't have much fund with even PG level stuff.
I tell you, intelligence isn't a ton of 1's and 0's. It's having organs and cells that learn through development as an organism. Such is language
I agree that Chat-GPT is not intelligent in regards to language. It doesn't actually understand anything it says, it just mimics language which it does pretty well because of the huge data set it has
Looks like GPT has already mastered the Japanese art of deflection!
This points out one thing though. It's great for practicing Japanese. Just don't trust everything it says
>The moment you realize that text to speech software has more emotions and more pleasing voice than literally any foreign anime dubs
I have chatgpt act as an rpg game master for an rpg that teaches you japanese. I now make decisions as a character in a text based rpg in Japan. And it will create npcs to talk to or fake menus to read to teach you japanese as you play
