Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Think Tanks
2023 will be known for the introduction of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool capable of dialoguing and answering questions more intelligently than man.
ChatGPT was created by OpenAI, a company founded by Elon Musk, Sam Altman and other investors.
The algorithm answers questions asked of it, and we came up with this one:
“What questions should we ask when interviewing Think Tanks directors?”
This is precisely what thinkers-brasil.org has been doing this past year, based on a series of our questions.
See what ChatGPT replied:
1- What is the think tank’s mission and focus?
2- How does the think tank generate and disseminate its research and ideas?
3- Can you discuss some of the think tank’s most significant achievements or impacts?
4-How is the think tank funded and what is its organizational structure?
5- How does the think tank work with policymakers and other stakeholders to implement its ideas?
6- How does the think tank guarantee the independence and objectivity of its research?
7- Can you discuss any current or future research initiatives or projects?
8- How does the think tank keep up with and adapt to changes in the political landscape?
9- How does the think tank involve experts and scholars from different fields and perspectives in its research and analysis?
10- How does the think tank measure its impact and effectiveness?
Absolutely incredible! Google only compares the words you type, and returns sites that contain the same words, no more than that.
The OpenAI.com Artificial Intelligence tool understands what you asked, and presents a very extensive list of answers.
We incorporated two questions suggested by ChatGPT into our questionnaire.
If you have a question, send it to thinkers-brasil.org at stephen@thinkers-brasil.org and we will send you the answer.
Next week I’ll illustrate how OpenAI can help Think Tanks with their research.
