I was showing my ChatGPT

His ?: will I like Oliver Twist

ChatGPT: It’s a bleak, 19th-century historical novel stuffed with poverty, suffering, and moral agony. You strongly dislike historical settings, sad/tense stories, and classics of this exact flavor… basically a “please no” wrapped in soot.

And a note on the sizing. I’ve redacted the sizes, but what I did was this:

I had ChatGPT look up the size chart for things I know fit and look up what those #s would be

Then I had it look on the size charts for the various vendors and show me, since I don’t trust it, what the sizing would be.

Bluesky doesn’t let you edit anything after the fact. I think this is to keep people from messing with posts after they are liked.

The problem is that I dictate. dictation & AutoCorrect combo is evil.

And so I keep seeing errors in my posts that I can’t fix without redoing the whole darn thing.

Page 5. ChatGPT gave you a bunch of options, and these were the ones I picked.
“Image grid of nine women’s tops arranged in three rows. Row 1: • A black-and-cream wide-striped oversized sweater with a high crew neck and very full sleeves. • A model wearing a rust-red boat-neck top with three-quarter sleeves, shown against a pale pink backdrop. • A model in a soft blue heathered V-neck sweater with a relaxed, slightly tunic-length fit. Row 2: • A model in an olive green wrap-style knit top with three-quarter sleeves and gentle draping at the waist. • A model wearing a warm brown V-neck sweater with visible rib texture and a structured neckline. • A model in a deep plum long-sleeve V-neck sweater with a loose, easy silhouette. Row 3: • A model wearing a camel-colored mock-neck sweater with long sleeves and a simple, minimal shape. • A model in a bright teal top with a cowl neckline and an allover abstract dot print; background is orange with circular patterns. • A model wearing a dusty rose tunic-style sweater with three-quarter sleeves and an asymmetrical hem, accessorized with a long knotted mustard-yellow necklace.”

Page 4 of the shopping guide, also the visual guide to the kinds of things I like. ChatGPT give me a bunch of options and I pick the ones I like.
“Three-row grid of nine women’s tops and tunics. Row 1: Left, a rich burgundy V-neck long-sleeve top with fluid drape and layered asymmetrical hem, photographed on a plain background. Center, a plus-size model in a long navy button-down shirt-dress worn open and casual over jeans, the hem sweeping nearly to her ankles. Right, a model wearing an olive-and-gold floral V-neck top with soft, slouchy sleeves and a relaxed fit. Row 2: Left, a patchwork tunic on a wooden mannequin whose articulated hands are curled into tight fists, giving the figure a stiff, almost comically angry stance; the tunic mixes beige motifs, taupe, and black-and-white polka dot panels. Center, a navy tunic with small white floral print, displayed on a wooden hanger against a bright backdrop, with a slightly scalloped hem. Right, a model in a clean-lined, sleeveless pumpkin-orange tunic that falls to mid-thigh, paired with flowing plum pants. Row 3: Left, an outdoor scene with a woman in a light teal cowl-neck sweater featuring two side buttons, shown in cool natural light near water and evergreens. Center, a cream rib-textured tunic sweater with a relaxed long-line shape worn by a model against a minimal white background. Right, a model in a long magenta sweater with subtle horizontal color-block bands, draping loosely to mid-thigh.”

Page 3 of the ChatGPT authored shopping guide.
The image is a continuation of a clothing shopping guide. It begins mid-list with two bullet points, then introduces two clothing brands (FATFACE and BLOOMCHIC), each with a redacted size field, a price range, and “Look For” bullet lists. ⸻ Opening Bullet Points (continuation from previous page) • “Draped fabrics and anything described as ‘relaxed’ or ‘easy fit’” • “Mid-thigh length sweaters or tops” ⸻ Section: FATFACE Size: A black rectangular redaction conceals the size. Price Range: “~$50–90” Look For: • “V-neck sweaters, longline knits, soft textured tops” • “Avoid high necks (too constricting or too warm)” • “Look for hip-length or longer cuts” • “Midweight sweaters that won’t run too hot” ⸻ Section: BLOOMCHIC Size: A black rectangular redaction blocks the size information. Price Range: “~$30–50” Look For: • “Tunics with flow, drape, and breathable fabric” • “Avoid anything super-thick, scratchy, or polyester-heavy” • “Soft knits and long tops that skim the body” • “Simple shapes in colors or prints you know I wear” ⸻ Formatting Notes • All size lines contain black box redactions. • No strikethrough text appears on this page. • The layout is clean, with bullet points and brand headers spaced vertically. • The page ends after the Bloomchic bullet list.

Page two
he page lists four clothing brands, each with a size entry (all redacted), an approximate price range, and bullet-pointed shopping notes. ⸻ Section 1: GUDRUN SJÖDÉN Size: A black rectangular redaction obscures the size information. Price Range: “~$120–150” Look For: • “Long tunics in natural fibers (cotton, organic cotton, light wool blends)” • “Asymmetrical hems, artistic prints, interesting textures” • “A-line or relaxed silhouettes” • “Knit tunics, patterned long tops, comfortable dresses worn as tunics” ⸻ Section 2: UNIVERSAL STANDARD Size: A black rectangular redaction appears again, hiding the size text. Price Range: “~$40–100” Look For: • “Soft, stretchy, drapey tops” • “Boatnecks, wide crewnecks, subtle V-necks” • “Longline tees and tunics that hit low hip” • “Smooth silhouettes without cling at the midsection” ⸻ Section 3: SOFT SURROUNDINGS Size: Another black redaction conceals the listed size. Price Range: “~$80–120” Look For: • “Tunics labeled ‘tunic,’ ‘long top,’ or ‘relaxed silhouette’” • “Split-neck, cowl-neck, or scoop-neck styles” • “Textured knits that are soft but not thick or scratchy” • “Flowy shapes that skim rather than cling” ⸻ Section 4: J.JILL Size: One blacked-out rectangle blocks the size information. Price Range: “~$40–80” Look For: • “Long tops, tunics, v-necklines, wrap-look tops” • “Avoid fleece or velour (too warm, tricky texture)” ⸻ Formatting Notes • All size fields are redacted with solid black boxes. • No strikethrough text appears on this page. • Bullet points are simple dots, and all items are written in plain text. • The layout is a clean vertical list of brands with consistent formatting.

So here’s the first page of the guide
Header: Cheryl’s Style Overview Body text: “Cheryl’s clothing style blends comfort, function, and quiet creativity. She gravitates toward pieces that move with her, skim rather than cling, and offer visual interest through shape, texture, or color rather than prints or embellishment. Her clothes need to work with her body (a short parenthetical note appears here with one or more redacted words; the redaction is shown as a solid black box partially covering terms such as ‘bust,’ ‘short-waisted,’ or other descriptors) and her day-to-day reality leading teams in IT—professional, modern, and never fussy. She also loves pairing outfits with funky, personality-forward shoes, so tops and sweaters should serve as clean, confident canvases that let the shoes shine without looking plain or boring.” A decorative section break of three tildes appears: “~ ~ ~” Subheading: What Cheryl Actually Loves to Wear Bulleted content (presented as lines): • “Soft fabrics with stretch and drape; nothing stiff, scratchy, or bulky. • V-necks, boat necks, and big cowl necks; avoids crew, mock neck, and turtleneck styles. • Hip-length or longer tops that do NOT ride up when arms lift. • A-line, swing, or subtle tunic silhouettes that skim the midsection without looking oversized. • Simple solids or subtle patterns; not twee, not fussy, not medical scrubs energy. • Pieces that feel unfussy but interesting—architectural seams, asymmetry, layering effects.” ⸻ Formatting notes: • One redaction appears in the first paragraph inside parentheses; it is visually represented as a black rectangle obscuring one or more words. • There is no strikethrough text anywhere in the document. • The rest of the text is fully readable and unformatted except for bold section headers

I was asking online for help finding a store to find sweaters. And one of the people said, “why don’t you use AI? “

And honest to God I normally think of ChatGPT is male and so I hadn’t.

So I had the worst intern (who is also in some ways the best intern ever so it’s a mixed bag) help me

This is what ChatGPT is perfect for:

Yes please give me a final recipie

Here comes your final, fully-scaled recipe, tailored exactly to:
• Your 600 mL of green tomatoes
• 2 spring onions sliced in the food processor
• That small blue thrift-store baking dish

It used photos for sizing
A side-by-side image. On the left, a wooden tabletop holds a partially used box of Kleenex with tissues sticking out, a navy blue ceramic baking dish labeled “BAKED WITH LOVE, ANN,” and two objects placed for scale: a black pen and a small purple toy sports car. Various household items and figurines sit in the background. On the right, a 600-mL Pyrex laboratory beaker is filled to the brim with small tomatoes in mixed colors—green, yellow, orange, and deep purple—resting on a dark speckled kitchen countertop with part of a microwave visible behind it.

Today’s ChatGPT conversation involved me wandering a bit

Regency era street muck
Regency era sanitation
Regency era pregnancy mortality rates
Presidential vs British King fecundity
Henry VII and STD rates in Medieval high society
Sally Hemings heritage

I think I ran out of lunch break about then

In the interests of full disclosure, ChatGPT first tried to convince me it had personality profiles which *do not exist*

Detective
Creative
Companion
Instructor
Coach
Critic
Generalist
ANALYST

(It wanted me to pick analyst, thus ALL CAPS)

I had to give it a screenshot of itself.

I asked ChatGPT which personality 4 me:

Quirky: Regency sewage systems, whale-watching Zodiacs, fast-food ley lines, and why Martinelli’s costs more now — all without switching gears.

If your conversations had a mascot, it would be a wisecracking owl in a lab coat holding a tiny lantern.

No sponsored content and no sponsored results.

So how long is it till AI starts spitting out sponsored answers?

I don’t really want questions like, “what are the top 5 ranking restaurants in a 2 mile radius of this address? “to tell me that I really wanna go to Golden Corral & McDonald’s .

Sometimes with #ai you can do things that would take you hours to figure out.

For example, asking ChatGPT to identify the coins i unearthed cleaning out stuff. (See the image descriptions)

(I had three photos, so this is a sample)
“A rectangular plastic sorting tray filled with an assorted collection of world coins arranged in individual square compartments. Each compartment contains one or more coins of different sizes, colors, and designs. The coins include a mix of silver-colored, copper-colored, and gold-toned metals. Visible currencies include United States quarters, dimes, and pennies; Japanese yen coins in 1-, 5-, 10-, 50-, 100-, and 500-yen denominations; South Korean won coins including 100- and 10-won; Chinese fen and yuan coins; Thai baht; pre-Euro European coins such as deutsche marks, French francs, Italian lire, and British pre-decimal pieces; Mexican pesos; and several small coins from other countries. The tray is densely packed, showing a wide international variety of coin sizes, designs, and symbols.”

Still having ChatGPT look through book reviews for me.

This one cracked me up:

“Summary: Cozy fall small-town romance. Reason: SKIP since “cozy fall small-town” is almost tailor-made to repel you.”

I asked #ChatGPT which of about 45 books or samples I have on my Kindle would be a really quick start.

It looked and said Harmony Black.
I couldn’t find it, and it described the cover for me.

Page two has this, good job AI.
A quote from Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer on a dark blue background. The text reads: “The point is, now we can skip the talk.” “The talk?” He ticked off his points on his fingertips. “Magic is real. You’re a witch. I carry a demon in my pocket. See? Now we’re on the same page, and you don’t have to lie to me. Saves so much time.” Below the quote, the attribution reads “Craig Schaefer, Harmony Black.” At the bottom left, a small silhouette of a person sits under a tree with a glowing night sky behind them. The bottom right corner has the hashtag #kindlequotes.

I probably could’ve just asked Google…

#ChatGPT today: Does the journey song about streets lights and people mention trains?

In Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” (1981), there’s a line early in the song that mentions trains:

“She took the midnight train goin’ anywhere.”

I’ve been thinking my ChatGPT conversations were pretty weird

But I just listened to my husband tell ChatGPT to pretend it was a frog working in cryptocurrency data security.

So maybe not.

The most I did today was ask if Stephanie Plum ever picked a dude (no) or learned to use handcuffs (no).
