A recent Facebook post of Chinese pop star Faye Wong in her early days under the name Wong Jing Wen had AI chatbot ChatGPT confused. A netizen shared screenshots of his chat with ChatGPT asking for tips on how to differentiate between Faye and Wong Jing Wen. ChatGPT replied with a mini-essay about the two’s appearance, singing styles, and personalities. But ChatGPT seemed to have missed the fact that Faye and Wong Jing Wen are the same person.
Faye Wong made her singing debut in 1989 under the name Wong Jing Wen for a record label that was trying to give her a more sophisticated image. She went on to release three albums before changing her name to Faye Wong in 1992. Since then, she has become a renowned pop diva across Asia.
ChatGPT, an AI chatbot often used for language learning, gave tips on how to differentiate between Faye and Wong Jing Wen. It said that Faye has a thinner and more delicate face compared to Wong Jing Wen’s round face, and that Wong Jing Wen’s singing is more powerful while Faye’s is more delicate. However, it missed the fact that Faye and Wong Jing Wen are the same person.
Despite this, ChatGPT’s advice on differentiating between the two could still be useful for newcomers to Faye’s music. By observing their faces, listening to their music, and paying attention to their individual styles, fans can learn to tell the difference between the two.
