Reply to comment by NegotiationFew6680 in OpenAI executives say releasing ChatGPT for public use was a last resort after running into multiple hurdles — and they're shocked by its popularity by steviaplath153
I just tested the 2+2=5 thing and it has since been corrected. But that led me down a rabbit hole of trying other tests. I asked it the thing about a plane taking off on a long treadmill that constantly matches the wheel speed of the plane. It got it wrong the first time but when I pressed it on why the treadmill would matter (without telling it my answer), it corrected itself and said it was previously mistaken.
No real point other than kind of interesting.

Yeah it’s interesting but also dangerous.
Imagine asking something like “how to make home made fertilizer” and then having to ask follow up questions to confirm it isn’t actually poison.
That’s generally not worry with standard search engines like google.
