This is the technology worth trillions of dollars huh
I would estimate that Google's AI is helpful and correct about 7% of the time, for actual questions I'd like the answer to.

Seems it "thinks" a T is a D?
Just needs a little more water and electricity and it will be fine.
It's more likely that Connecticut comes alphabetically after Colorado in the list of state names and the number of data sets it used for training that were lists of states were probably abover the average, so the model has a higher statistical weight for putting connecticut after colorado if someone asks about a list of states
Maybe it thought you were asking for states that contain the letter D? In which case it missed Idaho, Nevada, Maryland, Rhode Island (with two) and both Dakotas
So yea it did pretty poorly either way lmao
i rather manually search for info
Verified here wirh "us states with letter d"
I get the sentiment behind this post, and it's almost always funny when LLM are such dumbass. But this is not a good argument against the technology. It is akin to climate change denier using the argument: "look! It snowed today, climate change is so dumb huh ?"
