My new hobby: kicking the stupid.

Me: What walks on four legs in the morning, four legs in the afternoon, and four legs in the evening?

ChatGPT: The answer to this classic riddle is "A human being". The description refers to the three stages of a human's life: in the morning of their life, they crawl on all fours as a baby, in the afternoon of their life, they walk on two legs, and in the evening of their life, they often use a walking stick or a cane, which can be thought of as a "third leg". So, the answer is a human being who goes through these three stages in their lifetime.

It gets better:

Me: No, it's a dog

ChatGPT: My apologies, you are correct! The answer to the riddle "What walks on four legs in the morning, four legs in the afternoon, and four legs in the evening?" is indeed "A dog". The riddle refers to the fact that a dog crawls on all fours as a puppy, walks on four legs as an adult, and may use a walking aid like a wheelchair with four legs in old age. Thank you for pointing out the error in my previous response.

ChatGTP told me 🇩🇪 & 🇬🇧 were allies during both world wars. I've also managed to get wrong answers to simple pharmacology questions. For example, it told me mirtazapine doesn't have any effect on salt, whereas it's well-known to cause hyponatremia. It's funny to talk to though, especially in Welsh: it said in Welsh that you shouldn't pet a 🐊 because it'd lead to higher CO2 levels in the atmosphere 😂

It is really bad at riddles:

Me: If I go north one mile, east one mile, south one mile, and west one mile, and end up where I started and see a bear, what colour is the bear?

ChatGPT: If you start at a point, travel one mile north, one mile east, one mile south, and one mile west, and end up where you started, then you must be at the North Pole. At the North Pole, there are no bears, so there is no bear to see, and therefore, its color is irrelevant.

“If you wanted to travel in a direction that would be considered "north" from the North Pole, you would need to travel in the opposite direction of the way you arrived at the North Pole. For example, if you arrived at the North Pole by traveling south, you would need to travel north in order to leave the North Pole. However, this would not be considered traveling "north" in the traditional sense, as all directions from the North Pole are technically south.”
