One of the most treasured group meeting institutions in OPIG is snackage. Each week, one group member is asked to bring in treats for our sometimes lengthy 16:30 meeting. However, as would be the case for any group of 25 or so people, there are various dietary requirements and preferences that can make this snack-quisition a somewhat tricky process: from gluten allergies to a mild dislike of cucumber, they vary in importance, but nevertheless are all to be taken into account when the pre-meeting supermarket sweep is carried out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the question on every researcher’s mind: can ChatGPT help me? Turns out, yes: I gave it a list of the group\u2019s dietary requirements and preferences, and it gave me a handy little list of snacks I might be able to bring along\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When pushed further, it even provided me with an itemised list of the ingredients required. During this process it seemed to forget a couple of the allergies I\u2019d mentioned earlier, but they were easy to spot; almost more worryingly, it suggested I get a beetroot and mint hummus (!) for the veggie platter:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll actually be using many of these suggestions\u2014judging by the chats I\u2019ve had about the above list, I think bringing in a platter of veggies as the group meeting snack may get me physically removed from the premises\u2014but ChatGPT has once again proven itself a handy tool for saving a few minutes of thinking!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
