@arstechnica A quick warning about the data you provide as prompts: it can and will be used as training data, as can be seen from their privacy policy:

Our AI services allow you to submit text, documents, or other materials to the Services (“Prompts”), which generate responses based on your Prompts (“Outputs”). If you include personal data in your Prompts, we will collect that information and this information may be reproduced in the Outputs.So make sure that you don't provide any sensitive data when using the service.

@arstechnica I tried it and it gave me three different wrong answers to a simple multiplication of two 4 digit numbers before I told it to stop trying.

I'm curious to know what your initial prompt was and it's response. Was the prompt something like "what is 2373 times 8182?".

A shame if that thing failed on such an easy prompt and task.

@smurthys

It's really bad, it thinks it can do maths but just does the usual autocomplete.

@alan That answer is just bizarre. But I do like it's confident boast at the end about its math abilities, clueless though it is.
@arstechnica @alan After a short conversation related to basic legal concepts I find responses being too long due to caveats in every other sentence.
