Ask like an engineer, it will answer like an engineer. Ask like a moron, it will answer like a moron -- all that is inherent in the training data, in the question/answer pairs the thing was trained on. Ask it to impersonate a Vulkan, it will get better at maths: My armchair analysis of that is that Vulkans talk quite formally and thus you're getting more from the engineer and less from the moron training set.
I actually saw an article on researchers that found it answers better if you ask it to answer like it was in star Trek
Which definitely can't be the case because Star Trek technobabble makes sense is what I'm saying, but the language mirrors that of what you see on an engineer forum so the increased accuracy smears over.
Somewhat relatedly if you want to talk about real-world warp engines (there's some physicists with some ideas or maybe better put speculations) it's probably going to start talking in StarTrek technobabble. Less "turn it off and on again", more "reinitialise the primary power coupling".
