ChatGPT is not usable for anything involving logic or math (or even basic fact checking). How can this be considered a real product?

I tried using ChatGPT for writing a few emails and it was completely terrible. How are people bragging about this? My lord.<br><br><br>I decided to run a few tests to see how it can reason with logic. This is like trying to have an intelligent conversation with a FUCKING IDIOT. It can't do anything. <br><br>I asked it to describe a scenario to me where someone does something illegal and incriminates themselves without knowing it. <br><br>ChatGPT decided to describe a scenario where somebody walks into a bank. Somebody else robs the bank. The person that walked into the bank is filing a police report. The person filing a police report gives the police their phone for their GPS location to prove they were in the bank. The phone GPS location shows they were at the bank and the GPS also tracked their exact route getting to the bank and it went through a specific intersection where they ran a red light. The police then look at the camera footage from the intersection and arrest the person who walked into the bank for running a red light. <br><br>ChatGPT literally stated that this is an example of somebody doing something illegal and incriminating themselves without knowing it. <br><br>Are you fucking kidding me? This is one of the most asinine things I've ever heard. <br><br>I then asked ChatGPT to give me the equation to solve for the area of a circle. It told me it was πr^2. I then asked it to solve for πr^2 when the radius is 4. It told me the answer was π(4)^2. I then asked it to solve for π(4)^2. It told me the answer was 16π. I then asked it to give me the numerical answer for 16π. It said it couldn't give me the answer because π is an irrational number. <br><br>I was absolutely dumbfounded. I have never seen something so fucking stupid in my entire life. <br><br><br>I then asked it to give me the equation for the area of a rectangle. It said it was length × width. I then asked it to solve for 3 × 4.99. It said it couldn't give me the exact answer because 4.99 is a repeating decimal and couldn't be written out in exact numerical form. <br><br>I asked it to round 4.99 to 5 and solve for 3 × 5. It said the answer was 15. <br><br>I then asked it to give me the equation for the area of a circle again. It said it was πr^2. I then asked it to solve for πr^2 when the radius is 5. It told me the answer was π(5)^2. I then asked it to solve for π(5)^2. It told me the answer was 25π. <br><br>I then asked it for the numerical answer to 25π. It said it couldn't give me the answer because π is an irrational number. <br><br>I then asked it to round π to 3.14 and solve for 25 × 3.14. It said the answer was 78.5. <br><br>I then asked it to compare the results of a circle with a radius of 5 and a rectangle with sides measuring 5 × 5. It said the circle would have an area of 78.5 and the rectangle would have an area of 25. <br><br>I asked it which was larger. It said 78.5 > 25. So the circle is larger. <br><br>I then asked it which shape would have a larger perimeter. It said that the equation for the perimeter of a circle is 2πr and that the equation for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(length + width). I then asked it to solve for the perimeter of a circle with a radius of 5. It told me to round π to 3.14159. I asked it to do that and it said π = 3.14159. I then asked it to solve for 2 × 3.14159 × 5. It said the answer was 31.4159. <br><br>I then asked it to solve for the perimeter of a rectangle with a length and width of 5. It said the perimeter was 2 × (5 + 5) = 20. <br><br>I then asked it which one is larger. It said 31.4159 > 20. <br><br>I then asked it if it thinks a circle with a radius of 5 could fit entirely inside of a rectangle with sides of 5 × 5. It said yes, that it could fit exactly in the rectangle with no extra room. <br><br>I asked it if a circle could fit entirely inside of a rectangle if the circle has a larger perimeter than the rectangle. It said yes, it's totally possible for a circle to have a larger perimeter than a rectangle and still fit entirely inside of the rectangle. <br><br>I asked it if a circle with a larger perimeter could fit entirely inside a rectangle with a smaller perimeter and have zero extra room in the rectangle. It said yes, that's absolutely possible. <br><br>I then asked it to draw a picture of a circle with a radius of 5 and a rectangle with sides of 5 × 5 where the circle fits entirely inside the rectangle with zero extra room in the rectangle.<br><br>It literally said it couldn't do that.<br><br><br>Holy shit this is a completely useless piece of garbage. How is this considered usable?
