Did you know that December is spelled with an X? Neither did we—until one influencer’s viral video showed the pitfalls of relying on AI for answers.

AI is growing less and less popular by the day. A recent Gallup survey found a 14% decrease in excitement among Gen Z about AI since 2025, with 48% of working Gen Zers saying that using artificial intelligence in the workplace isn’t worth the risk. 

As anti-AI sentiment grows, anti-AI creators are finding a new niche. That includes Husk, an influencer whose videos showing ChatGPT’s frequent mistakes have gone viral over and over again.

Take Husk’s most recent video. Pretending to be studying for a test, he asked ChatGPT’s voice model, “Which month in the year is spelled with an X?”

Not missing a beat, ChatGPT replied, “That would be December. It’s got that X right in the middle, like a little holiday surprise.”

When Husk asked if the AI chatbot was sure about its answer, it changed its tune: “December actually doesn’t have an X. The month you’re thinking of is October,” it said, later adding, “October is spelled with that X right after the O.”

Only when Husk asked ChatGPT to spell October in its entirety did the bot admit its mistake. “There’s that X sound, but it’s actually just a C and a T,” it said.
