It really needs to be a disqualifying factor for generative AI. Even using it for my hobbies is useless when I can't trust it knows dick about fuck. Every time I test the new version out it gets things so blatantly wrong and contradictory that I give up; it's not worth the effort. It's no surprise everywhere I've worked has outright banned its use for official work.

I agree. The only application that is fine for this in my opinion is using it solely for entertainment, as a toy.

The problem is of course that everyone and their mothers are pouring billions into what clearly should only be used as a toy, expecting it to perform miracles it currently can not and might never be able to pull off.
