Speaking only for myself, out of curiosity, some real world examples
might be helpful here. I don't have access to Bing's
version yet, but I do have access to chat.openai.com which is very
impressive but deeply flawed.
I asked "Who is Kate Garvey?" (my wife, known a bit to the media, but
not famous) and the answer is weird and laughably bad with
more sentences false than true. Among other silly things, it says that
she worked for Theresa May and was involved
with Brexit negotiations, which if you knew my wife's politics borders
on libel. It also says she co-founded an organization
(which as far as I can tell, it just made up out of thin air) with Nick
Clegg's wife. It's completely mad.
