Okay, and in this particular advanced English lesson, we're taking a look at the news.
So I've got a news article that I've taken out of the Guardian newspaper and I'll give you the link in the description below so you'll be able to read it yourselves.
So what I'm going to do, I'm going to read it, okay?
And then I've highlighted some words, expressions, and I'm going to explain those to you in a little bit of detail so that when you read it yourself, you won't have to look up the Internet, you won't have to look up a dictionary, but you'll get them from me.
So you'll be able to follow along with the article and then you'll see the words that I've highlighted and you'll get a better understanding as to what they mean and how you might might be able to use them.
Okay, so this is an article based on a very topical idea at the moment about all this artificial intelligence and in particular about this chat.
GPT yeah.
Okay, so I'll read it to you twice, once to give you the gist and the second time to go through the word.
So here we go.
The type of factual error that blighted the launch of Google's artificial intelligence powered chatbot will carry on troubling companies using the technology, experts say, as the market value of its parent company continues to plunge.
Shareholders were rattled after it emerged that a video demo of Google's rival to the Microsoft backed chat GPT.
Chatbot contained a flawed response to a question about NASA's James Webb space telescope.
The animation showed a response from the program called Bard, stating that the JWST James Webb space Telescope took the very first pictures of a planet outside of our own solar system, prompting astronomers to point out that this was untrue.
