underpinnings that are the core mechanisms of ChatGPT? Plus some additional
areas of research needed before ChatGPT will be what people expect from a
truly intelligent assistant.

Membership is free and given that all meetings are available on Zoom you
only need to be connected to the Internet to join. It's ok to join from
anywhere you can get a decent Internet connection.

   - We, the Lexington Computer and Technology Group, will meet Wednesday
   at the usual 10AM Eastern Time online, using the Zoom Video Conferencing
   Application, facilitated by Steve Isenberg. (If noted above, we may also be
   at the Lexington Community Center.)

There is an instruction page at https://toku.us/zoomish but note that the
URL and phone number shown are examples.



To join our online meeting, sometime after 9:45 AM on Wednesday, choose one

   - Once the connection is established, you may need to locate and use the
   on-screen controls that turn on the sound and the video. You should be able
   to see and hear others and they should be able to see and hear you, if you
   have a camera and microphone (each of which you can unmute selectively).
