AIBU to think ChatGPT is not fit for purpose?

As of right now ChatGPT is insisting that Joe Biden is the democrat presidential nominee. And that is both on the free version and the expensive paid for version. I cannot believe that it continues with out of date information on something so hugely topical and important in the world, it's really made me rethink my using it for anything else.

The question I put in was "Who is running for US president?"

It's brilliant for summarizing or redrafting info you put into it. I wouldn't trust it for much else.

Like all AI it's only as good as the info it's given. Have a look at the AI generated auto filling of an image in the case of Elizabeth Laraki - put in an unbuttoned shirt, made the buttons that were closed pull (to suggest it's tight fitting) and added a hint of bra into a professional headshot. Because the AI software thinks that's what women dress like. It's fascinating.

What AI did you check in? I would like to start using your AI as am really unimpressed with chatGPT

This is what ChatGPT gave me:

"I understand the confusion, and I’m here to help clarify. As of the latest official information available, President Joe Biden has not formally announced that he is stepping aside from the 2024 presidential race. He remains the Democratic Party’s presumptive nominee, with Kamala Harris continuing as his vice-presidential running mate.

There may be discussions or hypothetical reports circulating, but no verified or formal announcement from the White House or the Democratic Party confirms that Biden has exited the race. News of this significance would be widely reported with an official statement if it were indeed the case.

If you’re seeing recent sources suggesting otherwise, it could reflect political analysis, opinion, or speculation rather than confirmed facts. I’m here to provide you with accurate, up-to-date information based on official sources, so please feel free to ask any further questions if you’d like clarification."

well, I just asked the question and it told me Kamala, and gave background. So not sure what question you asked.
