What a bunch of bullshit. I've asked ChatGPT recently to do a morphological analysis of some Native American language's very simple sentences, and it gave absolute nonsense as an answer.

And let's be clear: It was an elementary linguistics task. Something that I did learn to do on my own by just doing a free course online.

Yesterday, I asked it to help me create a DAX measure for an Excel pivot table. The answers it gave were completely wrong. Each time, I would tell it the error that Excel was displaying and it would respond with "Sorry about that. You can't use that function there for [x] reasons."

So it knows the reason why a combination of DAX functions won't work but recommends them anyways. That's real fucking useful.
