I burned down a forest to confirm

Don't ask it to name an NFL team that doesn't end with 's'

DeepSeek eventually gets it, but it's DeepThink takes a good ten minutes of racing 'thoughts' and loops to figure it out.

Im almost scared to ask but what are the teams that don't end with S?

[-] d_cagno@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

None in the NFL. But there ARE a few teams in the NBA that don't end in S, so the same question is common to see for a different sport. I bet this is what's causing ChatGPT to melt down.

Thanks! Yeah like I don't follow any USA sports but even I know of Miami Heat, so mahbe that's why it's getting hung up on Miami?

top secretNone they're all pluralized

Ty! I could have sworn Miami Dolphins didn't have an s but I appear to have been mistaken

After thinking for 128 seconds and going through a very similar loop, DeepSeek eventually manages to get out and come up with this

The NFL team whose name doesn't end with the letter "s" is the Washington Football Team, which was the temporary name used by the franchise from 2020 to 2022 before becoming the Washington Commanders. The name "Washington Football Team" ends with "m" in "Team," not "s." This is the only exception in recent NFL history, as all other current and historical team names end with "s."

It says that there aren't any which is probably why it trips out the machine, you're telling it there's an answer that doesn't exist with how you word the question so it tries to work backwards to the conclusion you give it (there ARE two teams that don't end with s) so this reaction really shouldn't surprise anybody
