I had some fun asking ChatGPT about cases from "Counterexamples in Analysis." You get this kind of uncanny valley math, syntactically and stylistically correct but still wildly wrong.

This was a response to "Prove or disprove: there exists a nowhere continuous function whose absolute value is everywhere continuous." It responded in TeX, which I coped into a TeX editor.

Another answer to the same question:

Hi

I haven't produced any quality artposting or mathposting lately. Instead I made a chud wojak on desmos.

I made him out of cone sections and linear functions (I guess some people consider them degenerate conics) + one (1) 3rd degree polynomial.

He's upset because he's all rainbow-y and he thinks that's gay.

The phrase "give a single fuck" implies fucks form part of a group with a multiplicative identity. However, they are not commutative because giving a fuck before an event has a different effect than giving a fuck afterwards. This also implies that there is a multiplicative inverse to giving a fuck, which in general can be shown to be true.

Thus, fucks can form a non-commutative multiplicative group.
