Right now if you search for “country in Africa that starts with the letter K”:

  • DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya.

  • Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same.

This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke:

“There are no countries in Africa that start with K.” “What about Kenya?” “Kenya suck deez nuts?”

    When I googled “What countries in Africa start with a K”, it gave the correct answer, but when I googled “Do any countries in Africa start with a K”, it gave me the ChatGPT nonsense.

      I Binged it and the results were consistently accurate and relevant, which I made sure to point that out in the “feedback” I gave to Google.
