Prompt: list the next friday febuary 9ths occurring on leap years

Response: Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a Friday, February 9th occurring on a leap year. Here’s why:

• February only has 28 days in a typical year and 29 days in a leap year.

• Since a month consists of 4 weeks (28 days), the day of the week for any particular date repeats every 4 years.

• This means that if February 9th falls on a Friday in a non-leap year, it will fall on a Monday in the next year, Tuesday in the year after that, Wednesday in the third year, and back to Friday in the fourth year.

• However, since the fourth year is a leap year with an extra day in February, February 9th “shifts” by one day, falling on a Saturday instead of Friday. Therefore, it’s impossible for February 9th to be a Friday in a leap year. The next Friday, February 9th will occur in 2029, but it will be a common year, not a leap year.

    I have experienced the same differences you mention. I would like to add that it’s a lot faster than GPT4.

      GPT-4 also often just fails midway through writing an answer, while I haven’t had that happen with Gemini yet (though I need to use it a lot more to be able to provide a fair comparison in that regard).
