Tell HN: ChatGPT can't show you a 5.25" floppy disk

5 pointsby dusted4 months ago
Challenge: Come up with a query that makes it draw something resembling a 5.25" floppy, that is, without the metal shield and hub that is present on the 3.5" disks.

Oh wow. That&#x27;s bad. I tried it, I tried it really, but I failed. Some funny results where a disc with the metal shield on the other side, while the opening was across it and so on. But it didn&#x27;t want to let go of that metal shield and all discs looked like those 3.5&quot; ones.<p>But at least it knows how audio cassette look(ed) like. It even made one with it&#x27;s tape coming out, a pencil ready to get some serious work done, just the magnets laying around (neatly positioned around the audio cassette) kinda felt wrong there. ^_^

Ok, it probably can&#x27;t draw a proper desk telephone, princess phone, telegraph key, or 4 way lug wrench with cheater bar either.<p>Most kids have zero idea how to work a rotary dial telephone, what an 8&quot; floppy disk, or paper tape are. It&#x27;s trained on newer material to try to be relevant to questions about new things. This is to be expected.

What about LaserDisc and CD-ROM?
