How good are you at maths puzzles? Better than artifical intelligence?

The Royal Institution of Great Britain

Puzzle-solving is an example of the natural world's abilities in creativity and ingenuity. From the simple human pleasure of a Sunday cryptic crossword to the animals that express their own incredible skills in problem-solving. But soon, will Artificial Intelligence become as good at, or overtaking, people at solving and setting puzzles?Join New Scientist puzzle editor Rob Eastaway for a challenging and fun hour of exploration as he poses some of his favourite puzzles from the magazine’s weekly column. It will be a case of people vs machine as it won't only be the people in the audience put to the test. We'll be discovering how well (or badly!) ChatGPT copes with puzzling challenges.ChatGPT is everywhere in the media at the moment, from completing University essays, writing work emails, to attempting screen plays. But when it comes to the not-so-simple puzzle, who will come out on top – people or the machines?This event is particularly suitable for ages 13+. As with all our family theatre talks, this event is designed to be enjoyed by adults and children together. All young people under the age of 13 need to be accompanied by a paying adult and those aged 4 and above need a ticket to attend.By booking to attend events at the Royal Institution, you confirm that you have read and accept the Ri's <a href="https://www.rigb.org/terms-and-conditions" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">event terms and conditions</a>.
