@elin @kaup @rodhilton @wuffish Just tried it.

The following queries (in separate Firefox container tabs) still give the ChatGPT garbage:

"what is a country in africa that starts with k"
"countries in africa that start with k"

Screen shot of a variant of a viral Google query which has been fixed in some versions, but not the one shown here: "what is a country in africa that starts with k". For this specific query, it gives ChatGPT-sourced garbage: "While there are 54 recognized countries in Africa, none of them begin with the letter "K". The closest is Kenya, which starts with a "K" sound, but is actually spelled with a "K" sound. It's always interesting to learn new trivia facts like this."
