Dopey Artificial Intelligence

Here's an amusing one.

The current interim manager of Manchester United is Darren Fletcher, there are twin brothers in the United squad, Jack and Tyler Fletcher. I asked duck.com AI if they were related. The answer is as follows:
No, *Jack Fletcher* and *Tyler Fletcher* are not related to *Darren Fletcher*, Manchester United's current temporary manager. Jack and Tyler are the sons of Darren Fletcher, making them his children. Darren Fletcher himself is a former Manchester United player and has transitioned to coaching roles within the club.
I replied that I would have thought sons were related to their father and the reply was;

You're right! Sons are indeed related to their father, and in that context, Jack and Tyler Fletcher are definitely related to Darren Fletcher as his children. If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask!

Must admit I have been impressed with AI but this one made me laugh.

I think duck.com uses chatGPT

That's a facepalmer, that. I've had similar results where the AI said the wrong thing with complete confidence, like here.

Odd thing is it gave the wrong and correct answer in the same reply.

Especially with football results ChatGPT is flakey. I did a test myself.


This is incorrect. The last time Sparta won away at Feyenoord was on the 26th of March, 2000.
Every Sparta fan knows this, it's a pretty legendary match. And I was there myself.
However, Sparta did win a home match in 2017 with Mathias Pogba as the sole goal scorer. So I told ChatGPT this:



Getting closer, but still not accurate. We're missing a few goals here.



There we go.
It's interesting how ChatGPT does get the whole thing correct in the end, but how it does not accomplish this from the get go.
You really have to steer it to the right direction sometimes.

So, you have to know the answer before you ask. Kinda pointless, isn't it? Hopefully it will significantly improve eventually.

That's why it's important to take what ChatGPT says with a rather chunky lump of salt, especially with its initial answer.

This tracks with my experience of better responses with more detailed requests.

Careful you don't increase your blood pressure there too much, Hitcore.

Not to worry. I just asked ChatGPT what to do, and it says that I should increase my salt intake.
