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?”
Doubtful, I opened up a privacy tab and typed this and received it as the first, non-paraphrased result.
The paraphrased result was correct, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Google is doing onesy, twosy patches when notable examples of it being completely full of AI bullshit arise.
