Oh. I just noticed the extraneous word in the search, which might be throwing off the LLM trying to understand it.

I asked ChatGPT these questions and got sensible answers.

How much more is one half than one third?

[subtraction answer: 1/6 more]

That's one possibility, but what about the other way to interpret that question?

[ratio answer, but expressed as "1.5 times as much" rather than "1/2 more"]

I don't even look at the AI result. I scroll right past. That's the thing, if it's bullshit 50% of the time, and you can't always tell like you can here, then it's bullshit 100% of the time, and it's useless, just taking up screen real estate.
