Playing Around with Google\u2019s AI Shows Serious Flaws<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Divide-Millions-by-What3-Google-AI.png\")
<\/p>\n
Google\u2019s response was idiotic. Google responded \u201cYou have to divide billions by 1,000 to get millions. To convert billions to millions: divide the number of billions by 1,000.\u201d <\/p>\n
This was idiotic because to convert billions to millions you MULTIPLY by 1,000 not divide.<\/p>\n
I was more flabbergasted by the number of math and logic illiterates defending Google\u2019s response than the fact at AI was fooled by a trick question.<\/p>\n
Google Corrects Its Error<\/p>\n
I asked Google the same question today, plus a similar one regarding pounds and ounces.<\/p>\n
Today Google responded correctly, as noted by the lead chart.<\/p>\n
Google Two Days Ago vs Today<\/p>\n
Two Days Ago: Google said Divide billions by 1,000 to get millions. <\/p>\n
Today: Google Google correctly said Divide millions by 1,000 to get billions.<\/p>\n
Some people claimed I asked an invalid question? What the hell is an invalid question?<\/p>\n
Another person said I wanted a conversion but my question did not ask for a conversion. <\/p>\n
Excuse me, but my question logically implied a conversion (millions to billions or in today\u2019s new question pounds to ounces). <\/p>\n
And please note that Google understood the question was a conversion. To repeat: Google said \u201cTo convert billions to millions: divide the number of billions by 1,000.\u201d <\/p>\n
No! To convert billions to millions you MULTIPLY the number of billions by 1,000.<\/p>\n
How many people want to defend that idiotic statement two days ago now that Google fixed it?<\/p>\n
Regardless, I am please to report that Google fixed it\u2019s error, as I stated all along.<\/p>\n
I believe someone at Google saw my post and made a correction. If not, that implies an even worse problem at Google: Randomly bad math answers.<\/p>\n
I am still flabbergasted by the number of people who flunked this easy test. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two days ago, I asked Google AI a simple math question that it blew.
