That’s because it doesn’t know what it’s saying. It’s just blathering out each word as what it estimates to be the likely next word given past examples in its training data. It’s a statistics calculator. It’s marginally better than just smashing the auto fill on your cell repeatedly. It’s literally dumber than a parrot.

Parrots are actually intelligent though.

Yeah, but not when it comes to understanding human speech. There’s a reason that repeating words without really understanding them is called parroting. Gray parrots are the smartest and some can actually understand language a little bit, making them smarter than chat, which is just high tech guessing without comprehension
