It’s not the clarity alone. Chatbots are completion engines, and reasons back in a way that feels cohesive. It’s not that a question isn’t asked clearly, it’s that in the examples the chatbot is trained on, certain ties of questions get certain types of answers.
It’s like if you ask a ChatGPT what is the meaning of life you’ll probably get back some philosophical answer, but if you ask it what is the answer to life, the universe, and everything, it’s more likely to say 42 (I should test that before posting but I won’t).

Education is key, and there’s no shortage of articles and guides for new users.
