Indeed. If you want it to fail then ask it to list famous people in 1976.
Nothing special about 1976 in particular, but that was the first one I tried.
It lists 10 people who weren't born in 1976.
If you ask when a particular individual was born, in some cases it will continue with the lie and in others it will answer the correct date of birth.
Sometimes if you rephrase the question it will get it right. For example it listed Mark Zuckerberg as being born in 1976 but if I asked when the CEO of Facebook was born, it mentions Mark Zuckerberg and lists the correct year.
If you then ask it to fix the list, it will either list new people (all wrong in my experience) or make a shorter list with the person whose mistake was uncovered omitted.
- burkaman 4y agoIt makes some sense when you think about the unstated constraints. "List 10 famous people born in 1976. You have to answer and you aren't allowed to look anything up." If I got this prompt I would also just make up a list of famous people that seem like they might be 50ish.
