I asked it for a list of restaurants in my area using google maps and it said there is a restaurant (Mug and Bean) in my area and even used a real address but this restaurant is not in my town. Its only in a neighboring town with a different street address

Imagine a box you can put instructions written in chinese. Out comes the same writing only in english you can now read.

Because you can’t see inside the box, you may think a chinese national is inside, translating for you. In reality, its a random american, with an english to chinese dictionary. This person has the *tools* but not the intelligence to understand what its doing.
