Artificial Ignorance

In this community we share the best (worst?) examples of Artificial "Intelligence" being completely moronic. Did an AI give you the totally wrong answer and then in the same sentence contradict itself? Did it misquote a Wikipedia article with the exact wrong answer? Maybe it completely misinterpreted your image prompt and "created" something ridiculous.

Post your screenshots here, ideally showing the prompt and the epic stupidity.

Let's keep it light and fun, and embarrass the hell out of these Artificial Ignoramuses.

All languages welcome, but an English explanation would be appreciated to keep a common method of communication. Maybe use AI to do the translation for you...

This came up after a friend was playing a trivia game. We were looking up what colour the wedges were for the different categories in Trivial Pursuit and it came up with this gem.

Search is "trivial pursuit sports and leisure colour"

I don't think I talk about hockey or the Canucks very much (at all?), and other than this brand new community I don't think I talk about AI making mistakes that much. But, I can't really remember.

In general I'd say it's made a lot of stuff up and exaggerated things based on limited information.

What AI/LLM is that btw?

Makes sense- I had a feeling lol

It's GPT4 via Perplexity.

Perplexity is an objectively shit company btw so, to anyone who comes across this comment, be advised that, if you decide to use it anyway, you can bypass the email sign up when opening the app by clicking "cancel" in the top right corner (and also, if you want to avoid supporting them in any way, you should use a VPN, run the app in a container/separate profile, and clear the app's storage after each use)
