ChatGPT talks about how cigars taste to him

Vasilij Ratej in conversation with ChatGPT about cigars and Cigars.Zone.

In this part of the interview, ChatGPT talks about how he likes cigars and whether he steals lyrics from everywhere.

Hello, I would like to conduct an interview with you about cigars. Each question should contain a maximum of 200 characters. Is that okay with you?

Yes, that's all right. I am happy to be at your disposal for the interview.

Could you please introduce yourself briefly?

Hi, I'm ChatGPT, a language model from OpenAI based on the GPT-3.5 architecture. I am trained to answer questions and have conversations in a natural way.

So here's my first question. What's so special about smoking a cigar?

Smoking a cigar can be a special experience, as it is a slow and relaxed pleasure that requires time and attention. The taste, aroma and texture of the cigar can also be unique.

Hmm, ok, but what does it mean to you personally to enjoy a cigar?

As an artificial intelligence, I have no personal preferences or experiences. However, I can say that for many people, enjoying a cigar is a ritual of relaxation and pleasure.

How do you know that?

As artificial intelligence, I am based on an extensive data set that contains information from various sources, including books, articles, research papers, websites and discussion forums. These sources also contain information about the practices and traditions associated with smoking cigars and the experiences and preferences of people who enjoy cigars.

In other words, you steal the texts that other authors who spend hours writing about the subject?

No, as an artificial intelligence, I don't steal texts. I am based on a given data set that has been legally compiled. This dataset contains a variety of information from publicly available sources written by various authors and experts. My ability to answer questions is based on understanding this information and not on plagiarizing other authors' texts.

ChatGPT talks about Cuban cigars, tobacco growing and fermentation

In this part, ChatGPT tells us when tobacco is harvested and fermented. And he tells us who the first people to grow tobacco were.

I see. Let's talk about Cuban cigars. Were these the first cigars the world ever saw?

Cuban cigars are renowned for their quality and have a long history dating back to the 19th century. However, there are records suggesting that cigars were made in Spain as early as the late 15th century and were exported from there to other parts of Europe and later to other parts of the world.

Cuban cigars are known for their quality? There are many cigar smokers who claim exactly the opposite. Are these cigar smokers wrong?

The quality of Cuban cigars has long been a controversial topic among cigar smokers. Although many cigar lovers appreciate the quality and unique flavor of Cuban cigars, there are also those who do not prefer them. It always comes down to individual taste preferences and there are many other countries that also produce first-class cigars.

Which country produces the best cigars in the world?

It is difficult to say which country produces the best cigars in the world, as this depends heavily on personal preference. There are many countries that are known for their cigar production, including Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras and many more. Each country has its own unique cigar varieties and flavors that are appreciated by cigar smokers.

When is tobacco harvested for cigar production?

The tobacco harvest for cigar production usually takes place between February and April in the southern hemisphere and between June and September in the northern hemisphere. However, the exact harvest time depends on various factors, such as the climate and soil conditions, and can vary from year to year. After harvesting, the tobacco is fermented and dried before it is used for cigar production.

How do you ferment tobacco for cigar production?

The fermentation of tobacco for cigar production is usually carried out by stacking the leaves in so-called "pilones" (piles) and maintaining a certain temperature and humidity. This leads to the tobacco fermenting and the undesirable components being broken down, which helps to improve the aroma, taste and quality of the tobacco. The fermentation process can take several weeks or even months, depending on the type and quality of the tobacco.

Who were the first people to grow tobacco?

It is difficult to say who the first people to grow tobacco were, as tobacco has been grown and consumed in different cultures around the world for thousands of years. However, it is believed that tobacco cultivation originated in Central and South America and spread from there to other parts of the world. Native Americans, particularly the Mayans and Aztecs, had been growing and consuming tobacco for at least 2,000 years before it was discovered by Europeans in the 16th century.

It is said that Christopher Columbus landed in Cuba in 1492 and that the indigenous people there, the Tainos, puffed "herb wraps" made from tobacco. Is that true?

There are reports that Christopher Columbus and his crew encountered natives who smoked and chewed tobacco when they arrived in the Caribbean in 1492. However, it is unclear whether these tobacco products were similar to the cigars we know today or whether they were other tobacco products. However, it is generally believed that Native Americans have consumed tobacco for thousands of years and that the earliest forms of cigars and cigarillos originated in the Caribbean and Central America.
