Re: Asked ChatGPT which cameras are using stacked sensor - R3 not on the list but R5 is!

Asked ChatGPT two questions. The first answer was a bit outdated.
While I am not an expert in phones, I strongly suspect these phones probably are not using stacked sensors (probably just BSI sensors) because a stacked sensor is thicker - not that desirable for a smartphone. Nowadays, smartphones have so many cameras inside, hard to imagine they can afford multiple stacked sensors inside.
Unfortunately, the second answer was totally wrong! R5 and R6 sensors are not even BSI sensors (a pre-requisite for stacked sensors)
I know Canon R3 is a relatively new camera and ChatGPT's knowledge may not be updated enough. So I asked two sports events questions, (who won NBA and US Open in 2021) that occurred after R3 was announced. ChatGPT answered both correctly
The scary thing is ChatGPT talks like an expert but is giving out a lot of wrong information.
(my first question) which cameras are using stacked sensor?
(ChatGPT's reply) Stacked image sensors are used in a number of high-end digital cameras and smartphones. Some popular camera models that use stacked sensors include:
- Sony Alpha 9 and Sony Alpha 9 II: These full-frame mirrorless cameras use Sony's latest stacked CMOS sensors for high speed shooting, fast autofocus and improved image quality.
- Sony Xperia 1 III: This is a high-end smartphone that uses a stacked sensor for improved image quality and fast autofocus.
- Huawei P40 Pro: This smartphone also uses a stacked sensor for improved image quality and fast autofocus.
- Oppo Find X3 Pro: This smartphone uses a stacked sensor to improve its image quality and low light performance.
It's worth noting that while stacked sensors offer some advantages over traditional sensors, they are still relatively new technology and are mainly used in high-end cameras and smartphones at this time.
(my second question) Can you list more cameras with stacked sensor? Such as Canon and Nikon?
(ChatGPT's reply) Sure! Here are some additional cameras that use stacked sensors:
- Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6: These full-frame mirrorless cameras from Canon use stacked CMOS sensors for improved autofocus, high speed shooting and overall image quality.
- Nikon Z7 and Nikon Z6: These full-frame mirrorless cameras from Nikon use stacked CMOS sensors for improved autofocus, high speed shooting, and image quality.
- Fujifilm X-T4: This mirrorless camera from Fujifilm uses a stacked sensor for improved image quality and autofocus performance.
- Panasonic Lumix S1H: This full-frame mirrorless camera from Panasonic uses a stacked sensor for improved video capabilities, autofocus and image quality.
- Sigma fp: This compact full-frame mirrorless camera uses a stacked sensor for improved image quality and autofocus performance.
It's worth noting that the use of stacked sensors is still relatively new in the world of photography, and this technology is mainly used in high-end cameras at this time. However, as the technology continues to advance, it is likely that we will see more cameras that utilize stacked sensors in the future.
ChatGPT or “BingGPT”?
I think it’s just a logic fault on spec sheet detection in this case.
