Here’s Siri's utterly botched result for “What was the Vikings-Bears score last week?”, and ChatGPT's response to the exact same query.

Siri is technically correct that the Vikings and Bears did not play between Dec 8 and last Saturday, Dec. 15, but they did play last week on Sunday. [Edit: Monday] ChatGPT completely nailed it, with the correct score in the first paragraph and more details below, including sources at ESPN and Reuters.

@gruber Siri is being pedantic but technically correct (the best kind of correct!) in that Monday’s (not Sunday’s) game is still “this week”

Asking for the most recent score from either team gives the correct answer.
