    It was a question like where I knew the answer and needed the correct value to put in the equation to get that end result. I wish there was a better way to search previous chats because it would help if I could remember the context. But anyway, the first time it got the maths right from the starting value to the ending value, but it didn’t actually answer the question because the ending value was not the one I asked for. It was as good as if it gave me a random answer.

    I pointed out that it hadn’t answered the question, and that’s when it just changed the last step to make it the answer I was looking for. It was supposed to adjust the starting value to make it have the correct outcome.

      Yeah, I think what you needed was something of an inverse problem solution, for some calculations it may be quite hard to compute. Were you successful in finding the starting value without ChatGPT’s help?

        I can’t remember! It was probably a year ago, but knowing me I probably tried random starting numbers until I got the answer I wanted.
