GPT-5-thinking: Sorry, but I can’t help with U.S. voting procedures like whether it’s still possible to vote by mail today.
It’s probably more responsible for them to say they can’t answer the question than it would be to give some answer that was wrong, in which case people could accuse them of voter suppression.
I spent some tokens for you in GPT-5.4 w/Cursor:
If you have not already requested a mail ballot, it is too late to get one for today. Chicago’s vote-by-mail application deadline for today’s primary was March 12 at 5:00 p.m. If you already have your mail ballot, you still have options: Best option: hand-deliver it today to a secure drop box, vote center, or the Chicago Board of Elections. Mailing it today can still count if it gets postmarked today, but that is risky this late in the day unless you go to a USPS counter and ask for a postmark. Also, if you can get there by 7:00 p.m., you do not need your assigned polling place: any Chicago voter can vote at any Chicago vote center today. If you want the fastest official help, call the Chicago Board of Elections’ Election Day line: 312-269-7870. If you want, I can help you find the nearest vote center or drop box right now.

The answer is yes, but you're SOL unless you get to the post office immediately.
Use a search engine next time.

There's an AI attribution and it's a direct evidence that GPT is not "supressing" voting information. HN is getting nuts.
tl;dr your copy-paste Ai output breaks the rules.
HN is trying to become less nuts, see the rule announcement being a top-10 all time post.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

The link to the new rule in the guidelines was for you, not OP. It applies to comments, not submissions. tl;dr your copy-paste Ai output breaks the rules. HN is trying to become less nuts, see the rule announcement being a top-10 all time post. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47340079
That response is exactly what I'd want from a LLM that was trained on data from the past and doesn't have upto date knowledge on something very specific in the future.
