Why would I do something like that?? Every time I ask something to chatGPT I get wrong answers…

I don't know about every time but the fact that it'll just fill in the gaps when it doesn't know is tricky and makes it hard to trust any answer you get.

Correct. Parent commenter seems to be asking questions they already know the answer to.

Those are the wrong kind of questions.

They should only ask the questions about things they don't know anything about.

ChatGPT gets those right every time.
