@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.

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.
