The example you give isn't necessarily a valid one. You're asking for a specific piece of knowable, measurable data -- one that has a single right answer and many wrong answers. Legal questions may have conflicting answers, they may have answers that are correct in one venue but not in another, etc., I have't yet seen any examples of an AI drawing the distinctions necessary for those situations.

ChatGPT has a lot of trouble understanding jurisdiction and what constitutes controlling precedent over what in which jurisdictions. As in it has no conception of it at all and gets it really badly mixed up. It doesn't understand the hierarchy of any court system so there are some questions that it will just always get wrong.
