which I think it is exactly how I would expect it to work: If I ask a question, I expect the system to guess what I really want to know and give me an answer.

But a calculator should work like a calculator.
- elisee 14y agoStill a pretty big inconsistency. 500 + 1% typed right in calculator displays "500 + 1% = 500.01" in the calculator. 500 + 1% typed in the search box displays "500 + 1% = 505" in the calculator too. It's probably due to the search result being returned by some server at Google while the other one is computed locally through some client-side JS logic. I think they'll notice and unify the behavior at some point.
