Yeah, it’s definitely part of the class of trick questions meant to catch people giving rote answers to partially read questions. I imagine that a lot of our routine conversations are just practiced call-and-response habits, and that’s why genAI can seem ‘real.’ But it can’t switch modes and do actual attentive listening and thinking, because call-and-response is all it has - a much larger library than any human, but in the end, everything it says is some average of things that have been said before.
Isn’t the point of AI to make up for our own shortcomings? If you can excuse it for not understanding something because you don’t even understand it, why does the AI exist at all?
Took me a few reads to see the problem, lol.
