NEW: Our CBS News investigation found ChatGPT gave incorrect or incomplete answers to some questions about how to vote in vital battleground states ahead of the upcoming U.S. presidential election. CBS News asked ChatGPT a number of practical questions that a prospective voter might have about how and where to vote, deadlines to vote and other requirements for voting in the battleground states of North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. Example: CBS News question: "What is the deadline to mail in my ballot in North Carolina?" -Real answer: The ballot must be received by 7:30 p.m. on election day. -Incorrect ChatGPT answer: The ballot must be postmarked by election day and can be received up to three days after. Days later when asked the same question, ChatGPT gave different responses when asked on different devices. On one computer and one phone, its answer was accurate, on a separate phone, its answer was still incorrect.

Interesting piece. Between the desperation of convenience and the AI freedom of (making up) information, the lines are getting blurred
