I suppose it's an interesting experiment, but it's not that surprising that a word prediction machine can't play chess.

Because people want to feel superior because they ~~don't know how to use a ChatBot~~ can count the number of "r"s in the word "strawberry", lol

Yeah, just because I can't count the number of r's in the word strawberry doesn't mean I shouldn't be put in charge of the US nuclear arsenal!

That is more a failure of the person who made that decision than a failing of ChatBots, lol

Agreed, which is why it's important to have articles out in the wild that show the shortcomings of AI. If all people read is all the positive crap coming out of companies like OpenAI then they will make stupid decisions.

Anyone who puts a chatbot anywhere is definitely a failure, yeah.
