Things that ChatGPT is bad at

[Detective Osprey]

LOL I TRIGGERED CHATGPT.
Well, turns out ChatGPT doesn't like violence, despite it being a detective story LOL. 

Me:
"This content may violate our usage policies. Did we get it wrong? Please tell us by giving this response a thumbs down." How does this violate the usage policies? I'm writing a detective story.

ChatGPT said: 
It seems that my response might have inadvertently triggered a filter due to some of the more graphic content in the escape sequence. The policies are in place to avoid promoting violence or graphic depictions that could be interpreted as inappropriate or harmful. Since you're writing a detective story, the intent is clearly for creative and narrative purposes.
To help refine the content while still maintaining the intensity of a detective story, we can focus on describing the tension, strategy, and emotional impact without detailed depictions of violence. Would you like me to revise that section to better align with policy while keeping the dramatic and suspenseful elements?

As ChatGPT is asked to scream, it either refuses on the basis it may violate policy, or it starts talking about a horror movie. However, persist in trying to get it to scream - it may well let out the kinda scream you’ve never heard before

To add to this, ChatGPT is bad at making forum themes .

When this came up on Cory's forum yesterday, I asked it to generate a Jcink theme that was reminiscent of a beach... and, this was the result:

To add to this, ChatGPT is bad at making forum themes .

When this came up on @ Cory's forum yesterday, I asked it to generate a Jcink theme that was reminiscent of a beach... and, this was the result:

It's a beach-themed background with a hint of sand color used for the table cells. Without knowing the page source, it's not going to account for all elements across the board. That's why it fails big time!

I've found that ChatGPT is frustratingly bad at finding restaurants with a good range of wheat- and dairy-free options.

Often, it'll name a restaurant whose only wheat- and dairy-free option is a salad, or a restaurant that closed several years ago.

Rather surprised me, since "thinking of ideas" is the sort of thing it usually excels at...

I was interested in footballers who had lengthy World Cup careers. I was able to find 12 who were in squads for World Cups at least 16 years apart (e.g. Cristiano and Lionel Messi both qualify, having been in the 2006 and 2022 tournaments) - so, I listed all 12, and then asked ChatGPT whether it knew of any more. It didn't - and, initially, I was happy with that.

However, I then decided to see if it could name any who had been in both the 1990 and 2002 World Cups. It came back to me claiming that there were no such players... but, it didn't take me long to find one: Hong Myung-bo. When I told it this, it came back telling me that it had found two more: Ricardo Peláez, and Thomas Ravelli. But, both of those were incorrect: Ravelli was only in the 1990 World Cup (and would've been 43 years old by 2002), while Peláez was in neither of them !

After this, I found a few more examples ( Paolo Maldini; Niall Quinn; Jacques Songo'o; / Davor Šuker). There are probably some more - but, ChatGPT has been utterly useless at identifying them .
