“How many es are in the word seventeen” the chat version gets this wrong or can easily be convinced of other numbers than the correct
Edit another is the gas station example
Mine gets it right, might be my plus subscription:
"There are 4 es in “seventeen”."
Took it about ten seconds to solve that enigma though...
The voice version will, i confusingly said chat when i meant voice. The carwash example will get it wrong(both voice and chat), at least it did on 5.4.
So, we might find these bizarre scenarios that confuse the system (based on our own deceptions): but basically it's answering questions pretty reliably right?
Fundamentally anti-AI people are overstating the problem.
No it’s not. It will get it plain wrong. The seventeen example it may get right sometimes but for the carwash example I haven’t seen it ever produce the correct result. Weirdly enough people also get this wrong but still. See https://opper.ai/blog/car-wash-test
