Here is what ChatGPT4 says
New chat Model: GPT-4 User Prompt - What is the most popular thing people see in clouds? ChatGPT
People often engage in a playful activity known as cloud-gazing, where they try to find shapes or objects in the random formations of clouds. What individuals see can greatly vary depending on their culture, personal experiences, and imagination. However, some common forms people often report seeing include:
Animals: The most common things people often claim to see are different animals like elephants, dogs, dragons, birds,
Note - It stopped answering so I put the question in again, the number one answer went from Animals (which is my guess) to Faces
1 / 2 User What is the most popular thing people see in clouds ChatGPT
It's challenging to definitively say what the "most popular" thing people see in clouds is, because cloud-gazing is a highly subjective experience and greatly depends on an individual's imagination, experiences, and cultural context. However, certain trends do seem to emerge more frequently.
The most commonly reported shapes that people tend to see in clouds include:
Faces: Humans have a strong tendency to recognize faces, a phenomenon known as pareidolia. This is why we often see faces in many random patterns, not just clouds.
Animals: Many people often spot animals in cloud formations. Commonly sighted animals include dogs, cats, elephants, and birds.
Objects: Everyday objects, from cars and houses to items of clothing, can also frequently appear in the shifting forms of clouds.
Angels or other spiritual figures: Some people often see spiritual or mythical figures in the clouds, shaped by their religious or cultural beliefs.
In the end, what a person sees in the clouds can say more about them than about the clouds themselves. It's a testament to the power of our imagination and our innate tendency to find patterns in the world around us.
User Prompt - sources for the answer above please ChatGPT
I'm sorry for any misunderstanding, but as an AI developed by OpenAI, I do not directly access the internet or specific sources for real-time data. My responses are based on a large dataset I was trained on, which includes a diverse range of sources, including books, websites, and other texts, up until my training cut-off in September 2021. For the information about cloud-gazing, I used general knowledge commonly found in psychology and observational science resources. Here are some related references that could help you further explore this topic:
Pareidolia: This is a well-documented psychological phenomenon where humans see recognizable shapes in unrelated objects or patterns. You can learn more about it from sources like scholarly articles or psychology textbooks. Here is a starting point: Liu, J., Li, J., Feng, L., Li, L., Tian, J., & Lee, K. (2014). Seeing Jesus in toast: Neural and behavioral correlates of face pareidolia. Cortex, 53, 60-77.
Cloud Gazing: For information about cloud gazing and common shapes people see in clouds, you could refer to popular science websites, books about clouds, or resources about human perception. A book that might interest you is "The Cloudspotter's Guide" by Gavin Pretor-Pinney.
Please note that these sources may not directly state what the "most common" shapes seen in clouds are, as this would likely vary widely among different people and cultures. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, you might want to look for recent surveys or studies on the topic, which would likely be published in psychology or sociology journals.
