They asked Chat GPT about an unsolvable puzzle in Polish. He took up the glove and… he died

The Polish language is full of surprises, difficult and sometimes unsolvable problems. However, since we already have rudimentary artificial intelligence, it was decided to ask it about solving one of them. What is the passive voice of the verb “to circumvent”?

I walked around the lake, the lake was left by me… Exactly. This problem is faced not only by people who are just learning Polish. Everyone stops strategically, thinks for a moment, and constructs several completely incorrect verb forms in their head. Until finally, with calm resignation, we give up and realize that it is completely pointless. This mode is not known to artificial intelligence, in whose dictionary you will not find the word “failure”.

ChatGPT creates the passive voice of the verb “to go around”

Although it has long been known that “to get around” is an intransitive verb, this does not discourage the algorithm in GPT Chat who believes in its own abilities. When asked about the correct form, he went all out and created it. What’s more, he was so confident that he even proposed two examples that immediately make every Pole’s eyes burn:

The passive form of the verb “objeśców” is “zostać objeśców” or “be objeśców”. For example: The house has been raided by thieves. The trees had to be surrounded so that they would not be damaged during the construction of the road – said Czat GPT.

ChatGPT is getting… dumber with age

However, such a mishap should not be surprising. According to the latest research conducted by scientists from Stanford University, the more data the artificial intelligence in GPT Chat handles, the worse it is over time at providing correct answers to the questions it is asked. Although it was mainly the fields of mathematics and coding that were tested, as you can see, it can also apply to human language.

When querying the passive voice of the verb “to bypass”, ChatGPT may have encountered one of those problems where several factors were at work. Artificial intelligence does not produce content on its own, it only uses what it finds on the Internet. And there you will also find numerous examples of incorrectly constructed forms of “bypass” and thousands of examples of correctly constructed versions of other transitive verbs. The rule “since most verbs are transitive, “to get around” is probably also transitive. And that’s how this aberration arose.
