Regarding "Puppy" (颱風的名字)

#2023-1004

此時此刻,颱風「小犬」的先鋒隊,正在窗格子外呼嘯著。花蓮市中心,雖暫時未見 "豪大雨",但強勁的風勢,簡直讓人不敢隨意出門。於是,我坐下來,打開 Laptop,與人工智慧 AI Language Model (語言模型) 隨意對談一番......

Mookoo: How many names of typhoons have you learned? Does the number of typhoon names increase over time?

ChatGPT: As an AI language model, I don't have real-time data access, and my knowledge is based on information available up until September 2021. At that time, there were a total of 140 typhoon names on the official lists used by different meteorological agencies around the world. The names are typically assigned by regional organizations responsible for tropical cyclone forecasting.

The number of typhoon names does not necessarily increase over time. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), which is responsible for assigning names to tropical cyclones, maintains a set list of names for each ocean basin. These lists are periodically reviewed and updated, typically every few years. When a name is retired due to a particularly destructive or impactful storm, it is replaced with a new name beginning with the same letter.

It's worth noting that different ocean basins have their own naming conventions and lists of names. For example, the Atlantic basin uses a list of names that repeats every six years, while the Northwest Pacific basin has a list of names that is updated annually. The names used in the different basins are not necessarily the same.

For the most up-to-date and accurate information on typhoon names, it's recommended to consult the official sources of your local meteorological agency or the WMO.

Mookoo: Have you heard of the name "小犬" (meaning "puppy" or "little dog")?

ChatGPT: Yes, I'm familiar with the name "小犬" ("puppy" or "little dog" in English). The name "小犬" is not commonly used as a designated name for tropical cyclones. Typically, tropical cyclones are named using predetermined lists of names specific to each ocean basin, as I mentioned earlier. These lists often consist of human names or names with specific meanings or cultural significance.

However, it's worth noting that some regions, particularly in East Asia, may have alternative naming systems or local traditions for referring to typhoons. These names might include animal names or other unique designations. If "小犬" has been used to refer to a typhoon in a specific context or region, it might be related to a local naming convention or a colloquial way of referring to a particular storm.

Mookoo: Let me share a fact with you: At this very moment, on October 4, 2023, the typhoon "小犬" (puppy, or little dog) is approaching and affecting where I live, Taiwan.

ChatGPT: I apologize for any confusion caused. As an AI language model, I don't have real-time data or the ability to browse the internet. My responses are based on information available up until September 2021, and I am unaware of current events or specific typhoon occurrences.

If there is indeed a typhoon named "小犬" affecting Taiwan on October 4, 2023, I recommend following the guidance and instructions provided by local authorities, meteorological agencies, and news sources for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding the typhoon's path, impact, and safety precautions. Stay safe and take all necessary precautions to protect yourself and your community.

Mookoo: Thanks for advice, and I will make sure to take care and stay safe. I'm curious, will you retain the information I shared during our conversation? In other words, will the so-called "new information" be incorporated into your knowledge data for future reference?

ChatGPT: As an AI language model, I don't have the ability to learn or retain information from individual conversations. Each interaction with me is independent, and I don't have a memory of past conversations or the ability to recall information from them in subsequent conversations.

My responses are generated based on patterns and information from the training data I was provided, which includes a wide range of publicly available texts up until September 2021. While I strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, it's important to note that I don't have real-time data access, and any information I provide is based on what was available up until my knowledge cutoff date.

Therefore, any "new information" provided during our conversation will not be stored or incorporated into my knowledge for future use. If you have specific and time-sensitive information, it's always best to consult reliable and up-to-date sources or experts in the relevant field.

Mookoo: Good to know! It's reassuring that you don't learn or store any "new information" shared by individuals during conversations. That's actually a good thing because otherwise, there would be a risk of being misled by those whose knowledge and opinions may not be accurate or true.

ChatGPT: Absolutely! One of the advantages of not learning or storing specific information from individual conversations is that it helps maintain a level of neutrality and avoids potential issues with misinformation or incorrect data. By relying on established and verified sources of information, individuals can seek accurate and reliable information from trusted authorities, experts, or reputable sources.

It's important to critically evaluate information and cross-reference it with reliable sources to ensure its accuracy. This approach helps avoid potential biases, inaccuracies, or misleading information that might be present in individual statements or opinions.

As an AI language model, I strive to provide helpful and accurate information based on the knowledge available to me. However, it's always recommended to verify information from authoritative sources to make well-informed decisions.

Mookoo: Now, let's take a break and bid farewell to each other. Goodbye, my dear AI language model.

ChatGPT: Goodbye! It was a pleasure assisting you. If you have any more questions in the future, feel free to ask. Take care and have a wonderful day!
