Like everyone and their brother, I’ve been playing with ChatGPT and asking it life’s essential questions. It confidently tells me things, and some of those things are incredibly insightful. However, people and chatbots that are wrong often state things confidently.

I saw a recent Google Answer posted on Mastodon. In this “answer,” Google suggested that there were benefits to disposing of used car batteries in the ocean, including charging electric eels and powering the Gulf Stream. Bing then picked up this answer and also suggested the environmental benefits of illicit battery disposal. I wonder if Google realizes you can use motor oil to fertilize your lawn. (Author’s note: please don’t throw batteries in the ocean or fertilize your lawn with motor oil.)
