| Abstract: | We explored seven Generative Artificial Intelligence (genAI) chatbots to determine their ability to solve a multiplication problem and found that only one solved the problem without mathematical error. From these results, we explore the mathematics created by the genAI's response to determine its mistake and why it could have difficulty with mathematical concepts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
