Yes, that Pavlov, of the "dogs" fame.

While he did spend some time in Kyiv, the work that made him famous was done elsewhere, mostly in St. Petersburg.

You might think that when I say this is in Egypt, that it is also in Africa. This is not the case. Sharm El Sheikh is located on the Sinai peninsula, which is geographically considered to be a part of Asia.

When I asked ChatGPT about this, it moved this location to Africa. When I asked it again, wording the question slightly differently, it apologized for mis-locating it, then correctly located it in Asia.

You still might need to fact check your technology!
