AI explanation

^{Show image generation prompt} Model: dalle-3
Prompt: Generate an image in the style of a Polaroid photo capturing a cozy living room in New Mexico. The scene shows a peaceful living room with a switched-off TV, a pile of colorful yarn, and a knitting project beside it. In the background, a group of energetic people are doing Zumba dance moves. The atmosphere is serene, with no sign of the previous burglars. The depiction should include only scenes, people, and objects, it should not include text or speech bubbles.

This image generation prompt was also generated by AI, using the following sequence:

Model: gpt-3.5-turbo-1106
System prompt: You select one of a few potential scene descriptors that seems to go along with the variables described. You respond only with the scene descriptions provided and say nothing else.
User prompt: Here are two variables: Burglaries in New Mexico and Viewership count for Days of Our Lives. Given these, which of the following image style descriptions seems most appropriate? Pick the one that seems to be related to one of the variables at hand. Please respond with only one of the following potential descriptions: Cyber folk Surrealism a Polaroid photo Psychedelic Low poly
ChatGPT: a Polaroid photo

Model: gpt-3.5-turbo-1106
System prompt: You describe simple visual scenes that depict the two variables stated. You combine both variables into one scene.
User prompt: Please describe a visual scene that prominently depicts both Burglaries in New Mexico and Viewership count for Days of Our Lives, in the following situation: Because the burglars in New Mexico were actually avid fans of Days of Our Lives, and now that they've found other hobbies, they're too busy knitting and doing Zumba classes to tune in.. Keep the description simple.
ChatGPT: In a cozy living room in New Mexico, the TV that used to be tuned into Days of Our Lives is now switched off. A pile of colorful yarn sits next to a knitting project, and a group of people is energetically doing Zumba dance moves in the background. The room is peaceful now, with no sign of burglars who used to be avid viewers of the show.

Model: gpt-3.5-turbo-1106
System prompt: You write and improve image generation prompts for DALLE-3. You maintain the same subjects, but enhance the visuals.
User prompt: Please respond with an image generation prompt that would be likely to create an interesting visual using DALLE-3, using the following style: [ a Polaroid photo ] and depicting this scene: In a cozy living room in New Mexico, the TV that used to be tuned into Days of Our Lives is now switched off. A pile of colorful yarn sits next to a knitting project, and a group of people is energetically doing Zumba dance moves in the background. The room is peaceful now, with no sign of burglars who used to be avid viewers of the show. Keep the visual depiction simple. Do not include any words or speech bubbles.

*Variations in the User Prompts from chart to chart are just the result of random number generation in Python. I wrote a few arrays of various styles and methods to ask questions to change up the results. Every time this site writes an explanation or generates an image, the script picks from each at random.

I sequence the requests into multiple prompts because I find GPT 3.5 to perform much better with short, well-managed contexts. Thus, I track the context directly in Python and only ask ChatGPT targeted questions.

Data details

Why this works

1. Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
2. Lack of causal connection: There is probably^Note Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
   no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied.
3. Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple^Note Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
   p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
