After Lucie was launched on Thursday (23), users used social networks to share the wrong answers they received, including a response to a user consultation asking Chatbot to inform them about cow eggs.
“Cow eggs, also known as chicken eggs, are edible eggs produced by cows,” said the French chatot. “Cow eggs are a source of protein and nutrients and are considered a healthy and nutritious food.”
Required to multiply 5 by (3+2), the model gave response 17 instead of 25, and Lucie also said that “the square root of a goat is one,” users reported.
Launched with the ambition to challenge English language mastery in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and provide an alternative to models such as OpenAi’s chatgpt, Lucie was named after the oldest human ancestor, said Linagora.
His logo is inspired by both Marianne, a national symbol of France and the American actress Scarlett Johansson, who starred in the movie “Lucy,” according to a Linagora statement published on January 3.
“Lucie is covered by a blue, white and red shawl, demonstrating his sovereign French personality,” the statement added.
Lucie was supported by French President Emmanuel Macron as part of his Investment Program France 2030, which includes a wide range of projects totaling 54 billion euros.
Macron is currently preparing to host the artificial Intelligence Action Summit, an event that will bring together world leaders and technology personalities in Paris from 10 to 11 February.
