If you ask this of any current day AI it will answer exactly how you would expect. Telling you to drive, and acknowledging the comedic nature of the question.


That's because AI labs keep stamping out the widely known failures. I assume without actually retraining the main model, but with some small classifier that detects the known meme questions and injects correct answer in the context.

But try asking your favorite LLM what happens if you're holding a pen with two hands (one at each end) and let go of one end.



Are you also an LLM? Do objects often begin rotating when you're only holding them with one hand?


Not unlikely that you're talking to a lot of AI-based AI boosters. It's easier to create astroturfed comments with chatbots than fixing the inherent problems.


I always like to ask AI to generate a middle aged blond man with gray hair. Turns out that all models with gray have black roots.

Even Midjourney couldn't do it.


Nice. My test was always a blond bald guy. It always adds hair. If you ask for bald you get a dark haired bald guy, if you add blond, you can't get bald because I guess saying the hair color implies hair (on the head), while you may just want blonde eyebrows and/or blond stubble.
