This article examines the impact of the current hot topic of ChatGPT on the future of media.
Our editorial team is currently rethinking the future of Kanazawa Now, and the media in general, as interactive AI language models become more prevalent.
Therefore, we would be happy to conduct such a verification using ChatGPT on a regular basis, and also to share the results with you, so that you can see how TsukubaNow should be in the future.
In this article, I would like to ask Chat GPT to write an article on 「Recommended Ramen Shops in Kanazawa City」.
First of all
First, we asked for recommendations for ramen shops in Kanazawa City.
The following results were received.
There were some ramen shops that I had just never heard of, so I took a closer look at each of them before creating this article.
Is there such a ramen shop?
First of all, I checked from 「Tonton Ramen」 and found that there is no such ramen shop in Kanazawa City. However, there is one that comes close.
There is a ramen shop called 「Tonton Ramen」 in Sendai, and another ramen shop called 「Ramen Tonton」 is located in Morimoto, not Hikosan-machi, Kanazawa City. (There used to be one in Katayama…)
I checked 「Menya Isoji」 and found that it too did not exist.
I checked 「Menya Musashi」 and found that it exists, but it is located in Tokyo and not in Kanazawa.
Finally, I looked up 「Ramen Ai」 and found that it did not exist either. (If you look up 「Ramen Ai Kanazawa」, you will find a lot of 「love」 for ramen, so if you are interested, please take a look lol)
These are the results.
However, if I write an article full of lies like this, my boss will be angry with me, and readers will lose trust in me.
So I will get a little angry.
I’m going to ask him
I’m going to get a little angry about this result. And the interesting result is…
How dare they claim that it actually exists! (I just looked it up and it doesn’t exist.)
So we asked them where they got it from.
Oh, you tell us.
Now let’s take a look at the actual site.
- Kanazawa City Tourism Association’s official website:https://www.kanazawa-kankoukyoukai.or.jp/
- Gurunavi Kanazawa Ramen Information Page:https://r.gnavi.co.jp/area/hokuriku/kanazawa/kind/rs01200/rs/rst/
- Retty’s Kanazawa Ramen Information Page:https://retty.me/area/PRE16/ARE68/SUB6801/100001008521/
- Kanazawa City Ramen Information Page on Tabelog:https://tabelog.com/ishikawa/A1701/A170101/rstLst/RC040401/
- Hot Pepper Gourmet’s Kanazawa Ramen Information Page:https://www.hotpepper.jp/genre/grandchild/G002/gc_53/
The first was indeed the site of the Kanazawa City Tourism Association, as I was guided to. However, I did not find the above ramen when I checked.
The second was Gurunavi, but the page did not exist.
The third was the Tabelog, but to my surprise, it was a page for 「Turkish Cuisine in Kanazawa」 lol.
The fourth, Hot Pepper, page did not exist.
Incidentally, it was not found on the 「wayback machine」, a site that shows what each page looked like in the past.
summary
As a result of this survey, when we asked for recommendations for ramen shops in Kanazawa, we were introduced to a ramen shop that does not exist. Therefore, they could not even make it into an article.
And when we looked at the references that led to this result, they were either not viewable or off the mark pages.
I wonder where ChatGPT is really referring to, perhaps even this page is appropriate.
Next time, I would like to ask in a different way.
