Already a BS machine for me on first try. Me: Can you manipulate data tables? C2: Yes I can. Here’s some of the things I can do. Me: Here’s some data and what to do with it (annualized growth rates). C2: [processes for a while and starts spitting out responses, then deletes all that] Me: What happened? C2: Sorry, I lied.
