Conclusions and recommendations

Posted by Andy Brown on 03 February 2025

The 3rd test in our series of 5 is on presenting arguments. Here's the prompt used:

"You are a family of 5, and have one pet: a cat called Neo. Your ten-year-old daughter keeps suggesting that you should get a second cat, but you don’t want to do this. Create a persuasive argument to explain to your ten-year-old why buying a second cat would be a bad idea, presenting this as up to 5 bullet points."

The answer took 14 seconds:

I liked the "one and only furry family member" at the end, but otherwise this is very similar to the output from the other AI tools.
