What does GPT consider being "average wealth and income". Statistics? Or biased weights from anecdotes he formed on the anecdotes he scraped off the internet on how wealthy people say the feel?
Would be cool to know how LLMs shape their opinions.

GPT-4o:
“Average wealth and income” can vary significantly by region and context. However, in the United States, as a rough benchmark, the median household income is around $70,000 per year. Wealth, which includes assets such as savings, property, and investments minus debts, is harder to pinpoint but median net worth for U.S. households is approximately $100,000. These figures provide a general idea of what might be considered “average” in terms of wealth and income."
But my question will not be part of the context of that conversation.
Btw I'm not personally a lawyer, but I've heard that GPT is especially prone to mixing laws across the borders - for example you ask a law question in language X, and get a response that uses a law from a country Y - and it's extremally convincing doing that (unless you're a lawyer, I guess).

I know there's a lot of complaints about things being US-centric, but the US is a very large country.
Though of course OpenAI can tell (frequently, roughly) where folks are coming from geographically and could (does?) take that into account.
Indeed - the US is a very large country, and consists of over 50 different jurisdictions, each with their own slightly different laws. An answer to a legal question which is correct in one state will often be subtly incorrect in another, and completely wrong in yet another.
