Choose any topic where you are sufficiently proficient and ask it questions about it.

Asking it to directly do math is simply the wrong approach. Like using a car to paint lines on a road. It kind of can do it, but not really. You can ask it for instructions how to do the calculation or for code that does it. Or get the GPT Wolframalpha plugin and let that do it directly.

I asked ChatGPT to give me a list of certain rhyming words that began with the letter L. None of the words began with L.

I am sufficiently proficient in the alphabet.

That made me chuckle. I've made it do a lot of poems and songs which rhyme though.

Seems like the results are hit and miss. I don't know why. I never thought much about how I please something, but maybe it does matter and I just happen to do it right?

I have. And it has always gave me wrong information. Always. Not even once it gave me right info. I asked for source, it gave me fake links.

Interesting. Can you copy that conversation? I would like to try the same input so we can compare. I also want to understand what topic it is etc.
