What question can I ask ChatGPT, right now, that will reliably produce a factually incorrect, wrong, or false answer? (lemmy.world)

I believe ChatGPT generally gives accurate answers to most questions. Certainly: it produces answers that are more reliably true than a random average person. Obviously it cannot yet do advanced programming tasks: but generally it answers questions accurately.

Prove my position wrong.

What can I ask it that will produce factually incorrect answers?

As a side quest, a much easier one, what can I ask it that would cause it to produce extremely biased answers that fail to do justice to the truth of things?

But...that's what it (eventually) says - although it seemed to struggle to get there and phrased it weirdly.

    If you ask a doctor for treatment, and he guesses the first two wrong medicines to prescribe but gets it right on the last try is that a pass?

    What's your point?

    You think that's an appropriate analogy for ChatGPT?

    "Guessing and usually getting it wrong a few times before it gives you the right answer"?

    If that's true why can't anyone here give me a question that it gives a false answer to.

    As in: it is currently getting every question right, first time.

    As I said: the only misleading answer to any question I have asked it in the last year (as someone who uses it all the time, both for work and personally) was about a heavily politicised history matter.

    Even then, the information was accurate - just incredibly one sided and biased.

    So go on, give me a question that it will get wrong...
