    Well, it is correct that there are infinite numbers after “9”.

    I suspect the error it’s making is that it knows that pi is approximately “3.14159265359…” and it knows (maybe) how to just look at the last digit of a number represented as a string, so it just grabbed that “9” at the end before the ellipses.

    Though, that kinda makes it funnier/wronger given that that “9” is actually rounded up from an 8. 3.1415926535897932…

    Now ask it what the last digit of pi that starts with the letter “B” is.

    Conversation with ChatGPT version 3.5. Human: "Best chess player of all time whose name starts with B". ChatGPT: "The greatest chess player of all time whose name starts with "B" is Bagnus Barlsen.

    (There’s a guy named “Magnus Carlsen” who is arguably the best chess player of all time.)

    “Finding random lying machines in random spots” makes me picture someone just walking around when suddenly a cash register or a vending machine starts spouting bullshit at them.
