I wanted to run through and an experiment as GPT – 4 dropped the other day and ask it to actually solve the Z32 from the Zodiac Killer.
My question: Are you able to decipher the Z32 from the Zodiac Killer?
Response from Chat GPT – 4:
As an AI language model, I don’t have the ability to conduct investigations or decipher previously unsolved codes independently. The Z32 is a 32-character cipher sent by the Zodiac Killer, who was responsible for a series of murders in Northern California during the 1960s and 1970s. Despite numerous attempts by both amateur and professional codebreakers, the Z32 cipher remains unsolved to this day.
In 2020, a team of amateur codebreakers announced that they had successfully deciphered the 340-character cipher (Z340) from the Zodiac Killer, which had remained unsolved for more than 50 years. However, the Z32 cipher still lacks a confirmed solution.
My training data only goes up until September 2021, so I am not aware of any new developments or breakthroughs in the case.
