It works well with popular languages. Any somewhat obscure language results in ChatGPT hallucinating nonsense code and telling you it's correct when it's not.

It depends on the question. Try asking it how fast you would need to travel to get from Los Angeles to New York in 1 hour. It consistently tells me that this is impossible, even if I was traveling at the speed of light.

It's strange that it was mentioned multiple times, "Jack Dorsey knew nothing about this", without any supporting evidence. Every other claim seemed to have an associated screenshot to back it up. Why not that one?

I suppose it depends on what your end goal is. For example, I've disabled news notifications on my phone. I used to get pinged multiple times per day to be told that either someone had died in an accident, or was raped and murdered, or
