If you want to do something like this, why not do the exact same thing but just on the other side of the planet?

every once in a while I think of a question that LLMs should be good at: "What percentage of Taskmaster UK contestants are male?" should get me close to an answer, but 6 queries in & its still counting contestants for multiple seasons, saying Greg & Alex, calling females males, & not giving 5 names
