In Copilot terminology, this is a “quick response” instead of the “think deeper” option. The latter actually stops to verify the initial answer before spitting it out.
Deep thinking gave me this: Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Maryland, North Dakota, Rhode Island, and South Dakota.
It took way longer, but at least the list looks better now. Somehow it missed Nevada, so it clearly didn’t think deep enough.

“D is for cookie, that's good enough for me
Oh, cookie, cookie, cookie starts with D”
GitLab Enterprise somewhat recently added support for Amazon Q (based on claude) through an interface they call “GitLab Duo”. I needed to look up something in the GitLab docs, but thought I’d ask Duo/Q instead (the UI has this big button in the top left of every screen to bring up Duo to chat with Q):
(Paraphrasing…)
ME: How do I do X with Amazon Q in GitLab? Q: Open the Amazon Q menu in the GitLab UI and select the appropriate option.
ME: [:looks for the non-existant menu:] ME: Where in the UI do I find this menu?
Q: My last response was incorrect. There is no Amazon Q button in GitLab. In fact, there is no integration between GitLab and Amazon Q at all.
ME: [:facepalm:]

You don't get it because you aren't an AI genius. This chatbot has clearly turned sentient and is trolling you.

Seems it "thinks" a T is a D?
Just needs a little more water and electricity and it will be fine.

I would estimate that Google's AI is helpful and correct about 7% of the time, for actual questions I'd like the answer to.
Connecticut do have a D in it: mine.
With enough duct tape and chewed up bubble gum, surely this will lead to artificial general intelligence and the singularity! Any day now.
