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 I cannot believe that it continues with out of date information on something so hugely topical and important in the world, it's really made me rethink my using it for anything else.

Asked ChatGPT to "roast mumsnet"

Ah, Mumsnet—where the parenting advice flows like a never-ending river of unsolicited opinions, and everyone is absolutely sure they’re the only one who knows how to raise a child without turning them into a future serial killer.
You can post on Mumsnet about anything—anything—from your toddler's refusal to wear anything other than a full-body Spider-Man suit to the fact that your partner hasn’t done the dishes in two days, and someone will always swoop in with advice like, “Well, my cousin’s sister-in-law once dealt with this by giving their child a full-on behavioral assessment by a certified child whisperer in the Swiss Alps, and they’ve been fine ever since.”
And don’t even get me started on the AIBU (Am I Being Unreasonable?) threads. Everyone thinks they’re the hero of their own tragic opera. “AIBU to be upset that my in-laws put a single walnut in my birthday cake despite my nut allergy?!” Get a grip, Karen, you didn’t need to have an existential crisis over a nut.
You also can’t scroll for more than three minutes without finding some debate that’s completely unrelated to parenting, but somehow the collective Mumsnet mind finds a way to turn it into a "do you vaccinate your pets?" debate. It's like trying to read a dissertation while someone’s constantly interrupting with, “Well, actually, my best friend’s aunt once swore by this homeopathic tincture made from the tears of a vegan.”
At the end of the day, Mumsnet’s real value lies in its ability to take what should be a 2-sentence question and somehow spin it into a 12-page thesis, complete with citations from the NHS, anecdotal evidence from several "friends of friends," and enough passive aggression to fuel an entire season of Housewives.
But hey, where else can you find the most incredible wealth of random knowledge, combined with an unshakable belief that everyone’s doing it wrong but you have the only solution? You gotta love it.

What truly colourless writing.

Do you not know how much water ChatGPT consumes for all of these pointless questions?
