Tested on GPT-5 mini and it's real tho?
Edit: Gemini gives different results
Man, I really hate how much they waffle. The only valid response is "You have to drive, because you need your car at the car wash in order to wash it".
I don't need an explanation what kind of problem it is, nor a breakdown of the options. I don't need a bulletpoint list of arguments. I don't need pros and cons. And I definitely don't need a verdict.
I'll also accept sarcasm.
"Unless you've successfully trained your car to follow you like a loyal golden retriever, you're probably going to have to drive."
Yeaaah they waffle a lot, i hate that
You can actually fix this in the settings there's an option for permanent prompt tunings and you can add things like "focus on concise answers" or my favorite " i don't need to be glazed , I don't need to be told that it's an insightful question or reaches the heart of the matter. Just focus on answering the question"
It's the illusion of reason
I've found some success in ussing system prompts or similar to ignore explaining things lol
Those gemini responses are legitimately hilarious.
Yeah, Gemini is... interesting. It said it's a "one-way route" for the human.
Yeah, he yapped a lot for no reason but at least it make you giggle a little
Gemini’s responses were surprisingly humorous
Bold of Gemini to imply any sort of liability for what it says. Google's lawyers really don't want that to be the case.
Tried it in GPT 5.2 (although in German) and it also says, that walking is better.
It also made a completely illogical sentence at the third point with two words in lowercase that should be uppercase.
I used paid models which will be the only ones the LLM bros will care about. Even they kinda know not to glaze the free models. So not surprising
( I have to have the paid models for work, my lead developer is a LLM nut )
Gemini got jokes, but why does it think walking emits zero carbons? Humans are carbon emitters, more so with exercise. Hell, I farted while giggling at its humor.
Much less carbon than the car? Yep. Zero? Nope
