The answers all seem pretty accurate to me.
Will AI replace Shadows Papa?
Time will tell ?
What if Shadows Papa isssssss AI??? Wrap our minds around that…..

Curious, but where does it get it then? /AI illiterate
It actually kind of does work like that, except it uses the mass of responses from forums like this as well as any other public data sitting on the web. GPT-3.5 and older (4 just came out this week), is purely trained to predict what the next word is based on the previous text. So given tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of text about gear ratios, what is the most likely response to a specific question. What it doesn't do is go out and do a live search (yet) to provide the data. For example GPT-3 was only trained on data up to '19, GPT-3.5 to Sept. '21, I'm not sure about 4.

I have an okay understanding of deep learning/large language models, but am still impressed by it's response to the gearing question. Usually with GPT-3 it would frequently make stuff up, but that looked correct. This could be a bit what's happening with Rubicon vs Mojave and lumping them together, because statistically that may be the likely human response.

It's a brave new world, I'm using a GPT tool for programming already and it's sped up my workflow a ton. I'm looking forward to similar specialized assistants like "GPT Home Mechanic" that taps into schematics, shop manuals, engineering data and can give good responses to "WTF does this brown/white stripe wire do?"

'Twill be interesting to see how many cool applications will result of the ChatGPT and the variety of other generative AI competitors to it will have. Also, the unintended consequences of using it as well. I've not played with it, though several of my direct reports have. Just like here, asking them to go ask ChatGPT and report what it says was fun. Sometimes the results were funny, other times disappointing. It gave an answer other than "African or European?" when asked for "the average windspeed of a laden swallow." :)

Legal departments will have fun with all this, because indeed the results are a result of statistical analysis based on data fed into them. For the programmers, asking for code to be generated and receiving a working set of code, it can be a super shortcut. But even though the output isn't placing Copyright statements (at least according to my directs when they played with it), it had to learn how to produce that code by studying source code (statistically) elsewhere. I'm waiting for the first lawsuit, where someone with a GitHub repository (and copyrighted code) finds that one of the generative AI engines provided code that looks tons like their code.

No matter what, this technology will be as dramatically impactful to society as the introduction of the microwave, smartphones, the Internet, etc. - but in a much more rapid fashion than any of them.

We've got a hackathon going at work and with the release of GPT-4, most are rolling in visual model training. If interested in the technology in general it's worth watching the release video from yesterday.

I'm working on a "who wrecks who" prototype in GPT-4 purely to show my brother that even OpenAI knows I can kick his a$$ even though if any human were to look at us you'd know (and be right) with 100% certainly that he'd utterly destroy me.

Shadowspapa is not GPT-4! GPT-4 can summarize according to the video.

That's impressive, but I'll have to stick around the forums for a second opinion.

Chatgpt told me a JT hardtop weighs between 150-200lbs, and a soft top 35-50lbs.

Besides forum posts suggesting otherwise, shipping weight from Quadratec puts them at 85lbs and 124lbs respectively.

In addition, Jeep has released a software update for some Gladiator models that is designed to improve the performance of the auxiliary battery. You may want to check with your local Jeep dealership or service center to see if your vehicle is eligible for this update.
I had a feeling from day one that my 2022 was acting a lot differently from my 2020 in the areas of charging rates, etc.
It's almost always charging at much higher voltages than my 2020 ever did. The top is at least 0.3 volts higher than the 2020, and cold temps keep it at 15.0 volts. My 2020 never even came close to that at any time.
My truck sat from before 3-9 to 3-19, a good 10+ days, while we were putting thousands of miles on the Wrangler.
My wife drove it a total of 6 miles (3 each way) Sunday evening, and then again this am.
When I took it out later this AM, the batteries were up and ESS worked fine as soon as the engine hit temp.
It's definitely behaving much differently than my first JT did.

Trying to decide if I need to regear my jeep gladiator if I go up to 37" tires. I currently have a 4:10 gear ratio on 33" tires and need to decide if I should re-gear to 5:13 gears. Can you help?


If you're planning to upgrade to 37" tires on your Jeep Gladiator, it's likely that you'll need to re-gear your vehicle to maintain optimal performance and avoid strain on the engine and transmission. With a larger tire size, the engine will have to work harder to turn the tires, which can cause a decrease in acceleration and fuel efficiency.

Generally speaking, a good rule of thumb is to aim for a gear ratio that brings the engine back to its original power band, which is the range of engine RPMs where it generates the most power. For your Jeep Gladiator, a gear ratio of 5.13 would be appropriate for 37" tires. This gear ratio should help to restore the power lost due to the larger tire size and improve overall performance, including acceleration, fuel efficiency, and off-road capabilities.

However, it's important to note that re-gearing can be a complex process that involves more than just changing the gear ratio. It's recommended that you consult with a professional mechanic or specialist who has experience with Jeeps and off-road vehicles to determine the best course of action for your specific vehicle and driving needs.



Does gear ratio have more to do with the diameter of the tire versus the weight of the tire?


The gear ratio is actually related to both the diameter of the tire and the weight of the vehicle, as well as several other factors such as the engine size, transmission type, and driving conditions. The gear ratio determines the number of times the driveshaft turns for each revolution of the wheels, and a lower gear ratio (such as 4.10) will provide more torque to the wheels, which can be useful for off-road driving and towing.

When you change the diameter of the tire, it can have a significant impact on the overall gearing of the vehicle. Larger tires will cause the engine to work harder to turn the wheels, which can cause a decrease in acceleration and fuel efficiency. Changing the gear ratio helps to compensate for this loss of power by increasing the torque output of the engine.

The weight of the tire can also affect the performance of the vehicle, as heavier tires can cause more strain on the engine and drivetrain. However, this is usually a secondary consideration when determining the appropriate gear ratio for a vehicle. The primary factor is the tire size, and the gear ratio is chosen to maintain optimal engine RPMs for the given tire size and driving conditions.



What about going to 35" tires on 4:10 gears? Would that be acceptable?


Going from 33" tires to 35" tires is a moderate increase in tire size, and it's possible to run 35" tires on the factory 4.10 gear ratio. However, the larger tires will cause a slight decrease in acceleration and fuel efficiency, as well as potentially increased strain on the engine and transmission.

If you are mainly using your Jeep Gladiator for on-road driving, such as daily commuting or highway driving, you might find the decrease in performance to be negligible. However, if you are planning to do a lot of off-road driving or towing, you may notice a significant decrease in performance and might consider re-gearing to a lower ratio, such as 4.56 or 4.88, to compensate for the larger tires.

Ultimately, the decision to re-gear depends on several factors, including your driving style, the weight of your vehicle, and the terrain you will be driving on. It's a good idea to consult with a professional mechanic or specialist who has experience with Jeeps and off-road vehicles to determine the best course of action for your specific vehicle and driving needs.

It got cut off in the end but basically chat gpt said the sport, rubicon, ans maxton had the same axel width. I would also point out that in the past i asked what be the widest tire size that can mount on my willys gladiator stock 15x7 rims… it told me that 9” width would be the max. I agree chat gpt is a great tool but i would not always perfect.??‍♂
