It's a machine learning chat bot, not a calculator, and especially not "AI."
Its primary focus is trying to look like something a human might say. It isn't trying to actually learn maths at all. This is like complaining that your satnav has no grasp of the cinematic impact of Alfred Hitchcock.
It doesn't need to understand the question, or give an accurate answer, it just needs to say a sentence that sounds like a human might say it.
You're right, but at least the satnav won't gaslight you into thinking it does understand Alfred Hitchcock.
