The Trading 212 AI can't work out percentages. I opened a Stocks & Shares ISA, it worked out some kind of target based on how much I planned to invest each month and how long I would leave the money in. I put in about Β£500, and now it says I'm 46% of the way to the target of Β£119,666, but it will take several years to make up the other 54%.

That's because AI can't do Maths at all. Even if it says the correct steps to follow, it doesn't know what that actually means to do it https://dotnet.social/@SmartmanApps/116000100388648367

1/x #MathsMonday #Maths #Math Over time I've saved many screenshots of #AI #slop #aiSlop stuffing up #Mathematics big time, and on occasion I've had cause to reshare them, and at times I have cursed that I can only attach 4 pics per post. Then I realised, what am I worried about - just post them all in a thread and then I can just link to the thread (or individual screenshots), and can add to it as more come up πŸ™‚ P.S. feel free to reply with more I hereby present to you, AI's greatest 5hits...
