    OP apparently lives in “Surfer’s Paradise”, just outside of Brisbane, Australia. Neat

          The coordinates lead to somewhere on the Gold Coast which is in Australia.
          Australia = Upside down land

          https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/upside-down-australia

          Upside-Down Australia refers to a common online trope in which Australia and the situations taking place in the continent are represented by an image being flipped upside-down, typically within memes. This is due to the fact that Australia is the largest meme-producing country in the Southern Hemisphere, and with much of the Western meme community concentrated in Europe and North America, they jokingly perceive themselves as right-side-up in comparison to their Australian counterparts. This cliche also shares similarities to the belief that toilets in Australia flush in reverse.

            the belief that toilets in Australia flush in reverse

            Isn’t this actually true? I remember reading that water circles the drain (and so toilet water will also circle) in the opposite direction from the Northern hemisphere.

                  and TIL some more:

                  Coriolis deflection sets cyclonic systems turning counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. Likewise, a cannonball fired due north will seemingly veer a teeny bit to the east, and one fired to the south will apparently deflect ever so slightly to the west, deviations a skilled gunner would know to adjust for.

                So I’m a little confused here, because yes that article states that the Coriolis effect isn’t responsible for anything as small as a sink or tub drain going either direction, and that it is based on the angle of the water going into the system (obviously, of course), but I don’t see it saying anywhere that toilets don’t flush in reverse in Australia. Is there a difference in the convention between US/UK and Aussie toilet manufacturing that might for whatever reason cause water to enter the bowls at different angles? Do we use the exact same toilets? Frankly that article doesn’t tell me whether Aussie toilets do or do not spin in reverse, just that if they do it is due to plumbing variables rather than the often falsely-claimed Coriolis effect, so it feels sort of like it’s answering an unasked tangent in this context rather than the question at hand.

    This chat is fake, right?

    ChatGPT does not have knowledge of coordinates unless it gets it from a tool. I don’t know anything it can access that would take “find me some urban coordinates somewhere around X.”

      Openai is a US company so there are likely plenty of FBI, NSA, CIA staff watching the conversations that might be of interest, one of them could have been bored.

          I mean its obviously fake. If we pretend it’s not fake, there must be a human behind it. Openai stuff won’t know your location and it’s certain(even before Snowden) there are agents watching conversations. So logically it’s some 3 letters.

          But again it’s obviously fake.

        A federal agent injecting themselves into a random chat? I find that extremely unlikely.

        It’s possibly an existing joke it found in a web search with similar coordinates? That it can do. Or maybe it got lucky and stumbled upon them in a search.

          It is extremely unlikely though possible. Chatgpt having the address is not possible. Most likely it just never happened like most of the conversation screenshots we see on the Internet. So it’s either fake(likely) or a spy.

            I mean, there’s no way that address is really OOPs, heh, unless it got it from the IP (which could be injected into the chat I suppose).

            No, the spy theory really makes so no sense whatsoever.

            They will of course know your IP if you’re not using a proxy and be able to attach a location to that IP, although it likely will not be exactly where you’re located.

        That’s because it’s a programmed response.

        There literally is no concept of a joke in their algorithms, it’s an advanced chat bot basically going through a list of responses and comparing them similar questions it as analyzed, and spits out the answer that is likely to match.

        Take a giant spreadsheet with two columns. First one is questions, and the second is responses. Compare queries against first column. When a close match is found, prints out what is in the second column. That’s an extreme simplification of what ChatGPT does. It was never programmer to know or understand what is in either column.

          That is absolutely not how LLMs work. “Literally no concept of a joke in their algorithms” is debatably true, but it’s a rather useless remark, because you could equally well say that there is no concept of code in their algorithms, and yet they are able to code. (inb4 somebody comes in and says “not that well!” to which I say: well enough for some uses.)

          The free version of ChatGPT is 4o or 4.1-mini at this point. You can’t even access 3.5 without paying, ironically, since it’s legacy now.

        I wonder if it has something to do with “frogs” in bricks - frogs being the concave indentation in the surface of a brick. “Stitching” kind of works with masonry as well…

      I tried it with Claude but it didn’t play along and immediately ruined the joke. Then I tried “updog” and it did the same thing. So I tried “uphomie.”
