Someone asked it to list the even prime numbers.. it then went on a long rant about how to calculate even primes, listing hundreds of them..

ChatGPT knows nothing about what it's saying, only how to put likely sounding words together. I'd use it for a cover letter, or something like that.. but for maths.. no.
