Except it refuses to aknowledge wrong knowledge or impossible methods. Until you tell it so, at which point it will agree with you even if you are also objectively wrong to tell it that.

I've coherced some systems into doing things they were absolutely not initially meant to do. ChatGTP would straight up tell me wrong and misleading ways to achieve them, and would be too ignorant to realize with enough stubbornness and with existing obscure info and the right mindset, a correct one existed. And at no point, not even with prodding and handholding, would it be able to have a useful conversation surrounding the why's of the current state of art.

It's not an expert system and it's stupid as fuck to treat it as one.

I'm not asking what the answer is. I'm asking why things are done and the answer gives me a few different reasons why it is done. It's very helpful. The answers all seem reasonable and I've not experienced any dumb answers so far.
