ChatGPT is an impressive chatbot from OpenAI that is causing a lot of excitement and concern. Can it really write poems, papers, programs, etc. Well, let me share an example: I am a model railroader and for that hobby I asked it to, "Write an Arduino program that simulates a flickering campfire using an LED attached to pin 9.”  After two to three seconds, it gave me a program to do this (a program that looks to be correct) and followed it with a detailed explanation of how the program works.  Fascinating, but troubling as well.
