In Copilot terminology, this is a “quick response” instead of the “think deeper” option. The latter actually stops to verify the initial answer before spitting it out.
Deep thinking gave me this: Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Indiana, Maryland, North Dakota, Rhode Island, and South Dakota.
It took way longer, but at least the list looks better now. Somehow it missed Nevada, so it clearly didn’t think deep enough.
"I asked it to burn an extra 2KWh of energy breaking the task up into small parts to think about it in more detail, and it still got the answer wrong"
Yeah that pretty much sums it up. Sadly, it didn’t tell me how much coal was burned and how many starving orphan puppies it had to stomp on to produce the result.
