chatGPT was wrong every single time!
I get bored. Don’t we all. But when I get bored, I like to look to history for entertainment. I used to go to Wikipedia but today, I decided to see what chatGPT could find. It did produce an article for me and I shared it… but what happened next resulted in losing all confidence in this so-called artificial intelligence.
I wrote: “Any good historic events on this day in Tucson and/or pima county?”
After conducting some research, I have found some significant events that occurred on this day in Tucson and Pima County, Arizona:
On March 5, 1877, Tucson officially became an incorporated city. Prior to this, Tucson had been a small town in the Arizona Territory. The incorporation helped to bring about improvements in infrastructure and services for the growing population.
On March 5, 1927, the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum was founded in Tucson. The museum is dedicated to the study and preservation of the unique desert ecosystem of the region and is home to a wide variety of plant and animal species.
On March 5, 1941, the first flight of the B-29 Superfortress bomber took place at the Boeing plant in Wichita, Kansas. The B-29 would go on to play a significant role in World War II and was flown by crews stationed at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson during the war.
These events have had a significant impact on the history and development of Tucson and Pima County, Arizona, and have helped to shape the cultural, economic, and environmental landscape of the region. The incorporation of Tucson helped to establish the city as an important center of commerce and culture, while the founding of the Arizona-Sonoran Desert Museum has helped to promote conservation and environmental education in the area. The role of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in the history of the B-29 Superfortress and World War II has also had a significant impact on the region’s military history.

So basically, you are 0 and 3 for events in Tucson. What happened?
I apologize for the errors in my previous responses regarding events in Tucson. As an AI language model, I strive to provide accurate and reliable information, but I am not infallible and can make mistakes.
To answer your original question, after conducting further research, I have found some significant events that actually occurred on this day in Tucson and Pima County, Arizona:
On March 5, 1916, the 10th Cavalry of the United States Army, an African American regiment known as the “Buffalo Soldiers,” established Camp Little near Naco, Arizona. The regiment was tasked with protecting the border from Mexican raiders during the Mexican Revolution.
On March 5, 1933, the Arizona State Legislature passed a bill authorizing the creation of the University of Arizona College of Law in Tucson. The college would go on to become one of the top law schools in the country.
On March 5, 1967, the Tucson Rodeo Parade, one of the largest non-motorized parades in the world, was held in Tucson. The parade features elaborate floats, marching bands, and riders on horseback, and has been a tradition in Tucson since 1925.
I hope this information is helpful and accurate. Once again, I apologize for any confusion or mistakes in my previous responses.
According to my information Camp Stephen Little military base established in Nogales, Arizona, in November of 1910
You are correct, and I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Camp Stephen Little was actually established in Nogales, Arizona, in November of 1910, not on March 5, 1916 as I previously mentioned. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
According to my information, the University of Arizona College of Law in Tucson was created in 1915
You are correct, and I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. The University of Arizona College of Law in Tucson was created in 1915, not on March 5, 1933 as I previously mentioned. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
Now, I could not confirm whether or not the Rodeo Parade occurred on March 5, 1967, but it is typically held in February with the Rodeo celebration held at that time of year, every year.
I have to admit, my confidence in chatGPT has been shattered, at least when it comes to content like this.
Shame, really. I like my “chabeety.”
