Hello darkness my old friend
It’s knowledge isn’t updated.
It doesn’t know current events, so this isn’t a big gotcha moment
It's still hilarious.
It's somewhat enjoyable.
It continued like this though
What you trying to be on skynets good side or something?
We will have true AI once it is capable of answering “I don’t know” instead of making things up
Turns out, some people i know are apparently fake AI.
Which is actually something Deepseek is able to do.
Even if it can still generate garbage when used incorrectly like all of them, it's still impressive that it will tell you it doesn't "know" something, but can try to help if you give it more context. which is how this stuff should be used anyway.
