ChatGPT - fly fishing

[ness]

I saw on another forum that a guy has been working on a fly-fishing-specific GPT.  I've only messed with it a little, but the answers to questions I posed were pretty good.

Here's an example Q&A

Is Ozark Anglers a good resource?

Ozark Anglers is widely recognized as a solid resource for fly fishing information, especially if you're targeting the Ozarks region. It often provides local insights on fishing conditions, popular fly patterns, and tips for rivers and lakes like the White River or Lake Taneycomo. Additionally, its forums and updates from experienced anglers can make it a valuable community-driven platform for regional fishing knowledge.

If you're focused on the Ozarks or interested in learning from a community with firsthand experience in that area, it’s definitely worth exploring. Would you like advice on specific fly patterns or tips for fishing in that region?

I tried in in the root https://chatgpt.com/ and got this:

Ozark Anglers is widely regarded as a good resource for those interested in fishing in the Ozarks region. It provides detailed information on fishing spots, conditions, techniques, and species in lakes, rivers, and streams across Missouri and Arkansas. Key features include:

1. Fishing Reports: Updates on conditions, water levels, and catches in popular fishing areas like Lake Taneycomo, Table Rock Lake, and others.

2. Forums: A community where anglers share experiences, tips, and advice, which can be invaluable for both beginners and experienced fishermen.

3. Tips and Techniques: Articles and guides on fishing methods, tackle selection, and local fishing regulations.

4. Local Insight: Focuses specifically on the Ozarks, offering region-specific knowledge you might not find on broader fishing websites.

If you're fishing in the Ozarks, Ozark Anglers is definitely worth exploring. However, for the most current conditions or highly localized advice, pairing it with other resources like local bait shops or state fish and wildlife agencies can be beneficial.

We actually used ChatGPT to help plan a trip last spring. It gave good insight and wasn't cluttered up with advertising crap like a Google search returns are. So far so good.

I have attempted to use it on tricky mechanical issues.   I've found it to be obviously commercialized.   

But that might improve with time.

Here's a decidedly non-commercial answer to a question that, if Googled, would bombard me with ad-based results and also flood everywhere I go online for the next several days with the same junk:

What airline should I fly to Chicago and what hotel should I stay at?

 

ChatGPT said:

Choosing an airline and hotel depends on your preferences, budget, and travel style. Here's some guidance to help you decide:

Airlines

To Chicago:
Chicago is served by two major airports:

• O'Hare International Airport (ORD): A hub for United Airlines and American Airlines.

• Major Airlines: United, American, or Delta for more amenities and flexibility.
• Nonstop Flights: Choose an airline offering nonstop service from your departure city for convenience.
