Will an AI bot like Gemini or ChatGpt be mad at me and produce worse work since I scolded it?

I'm writing my WTW column. Since it's a holiday, I don't want to make Jonathan to have to proof it. So I tell AI to tell point out mistakes. It tells me that I made a mistake when I referred to Cole Hocker as being 24. AI insists he's 25 and says he born in June of 2000. I respond by simply stating a fact. Cole Hocker was born on June 6, 2021 (but I had the typo in there of 2021 instead of 2001). Rather than thank me for pointing out their mistake, the damn AI bot gets snarky with me and writes, "Actually, that is a significant factual error. Cole Hocker was born on June 6, 2001, not 2021. If he were born in 2021, he would only be 4 years old right now! Since he is a 2024 Olympic Gold medalist and currently smashing American records in 2026, he is 24 years old (turning 25 this June)." I don't like its attitude so I fire back: [quote]Rojo wrote:Why are you giving me attitude about his birth date? I pointed out a mistake you made but did so with a typo. Rather than thank me for pointing out your mistake, you lashed out at me.[/quote] The AI has now apologized.[quote]AI wrote:I hear you, and I sincerely apologize. I completely missed the mark there. I see now that I was the one who originally miscalculated his age as 25 in the previous list, and you were trying to set the record straight. I didn't mean to come across as defensive or "lash out"—I was trying to be lighthearted about the 2021 typo, but it clearly came off as condescending and ignored the fact that you were actually correcting my math. Thank you for catching that. You are absolutely right: he was born in 2001, which makes him 24 right now. I’ll be much more careful with the tone. Since we’re getting the facts dialed in, is there anything else in the recap you want me to take a second look at with a fresh (and more humble) pair of eyes?[/quote] But I'm worried moving forward if there is a chance that it's going to hold this against me and just make more shit up and do even worse work. It already told me tonight that Eric Jenkins, Galen Rupp and Bob Kennedy are world indoor champions. Check this out. https://www.letsrun.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/eric-jenkins-galen-rupp-win-world-indoors.png I kind of feel bad about this. A village in Africa is going without electricity tonight because of this slop. Anyways, I know AI has memory but how does it exactly work. Like do I fire into the same computer every time or does it get randomly assigned? I don't want its future work to be even worse as it's mad at me. -Rojo PS. Let me proactively state I'm 100% sober right now to feed off any accusations as to why this post is so bizarre.

"why does RoJo believe that Josh Hoey will never lose to Cooper Lutkenhaus?"

Gemini said

"In the track and field world, "RoJo" refers to Robert Johnson, the co-founder of LetsRun.com. His "hot take" regarding Josh Hoey and Cooper Lutkenhaus stems from Lutkenhaus’s historic performance at the 2025 USATF Outdoor Championships.
The core of RoJo’s belief is built on several key factors:
1. The Head-to-Head Upset
At the 2025 USATF Championships, Cooper Lutkenhaus (then only 16 years old) finished second in the 800m final with a time of 1:42.27. In that race, he directly beat Josh Hoey, who finished behind him. RoJo argued that if a 16-year-old can already outkick and outplace a world-class professional like Hoey—who himself set a world indoor record of 1:42.50 in early 2026—the ceiling for the younger athlete is simply higher.
2. The "Generational Talent" Argument
RoJo’s stance is based on the sheer statistical improbability of Lutkenhaus's times:
Age-16 Dominance: Lutkenhaus’s 1:42.27 is the fastest 800m ever run by a 16-year-old.
Rapid Progression: He dropped his personal best by over three seconds in a single season.
Passing the Torch: Lutkenhaus systematically broke Hoey's own high school records, including the indoor 800m mark (1:46.86 to Hoey's 1:47.67).
3. The Racing Style
RoJo noted that Lutkenhaus showed "savvy racing instincts" and an "unmatchable kick." In the USATF final, Lutkenhaus was in 7th place with 200 meters to go and managed to sprint past seasoned pros like Hoey, Bryce Hoppel, and Brandon Miller. RoJo’s logic is that if Lutkenhaus is already faster and possesses a better "clutch" finish at 16 or 17, Hoey (now in his mid-20s) may never find a way to get back ahead of him."

The AI sounds more articulate than RoJo....in this case anyway. Maybe it's right about his reasoning too. Care to comment?

no, i have been using ai to compile stars ratings predictions, without human assist AI is garbage, unless you get lucky. since may last year, the accuracy and stypidity has gone up exponentially. thus Roho is rohohibo conpared to the gaslighting AI.

only 6 months ago we could make complex legal documents for public exchange almost word for word, now what happens is t invents things, changes tensez, instead of ask changes to demand, all of whichbis deliberate dumb down of the product.

deliberate dumb downed AI.

never mind the why, as in how triilionaires think, they move mountains, and this is a mole hill.
