I’ve seen the same behavior. I wonder if these are learning instances for the AI or is it just dumbly going through a set of possible answers until the user is satisfied with the answer. If it’s the latter, it’s basically a fancy way of doing a google search and going through potential answers. If it’s the former and the AI learns from these mistakes (say if a consistent number of users point them out) I assume it will get much better over time.

answering my own question, I guess not:

So at its current stage it’s pretty useless as it will not learn from its mistakes, seems to me the opposite of intelligence, just another mechanical turk.

I think the two main problems here are:

- Users can't use it to learn, because ChatGPT responds with high confidence but could be terribly wrong.

- Even if it could learn from users, it would really only learn from people that know a subject and are willing to spend their time correcting ChatGPT.
