Well, I asked ChatGPT:

> Infinity is not a number, odd or even, but rather a concept or a mathematical idea that represents an unbounded or limitless quantity. Infinity is not a real number that can be used in ordinary arithmetic operations, but it is used to describe a quantity that is larger than any finite number. Therefore, the concept of odd or even does not apply to infinity.

Imagine if we had ChatGPT a couple hundred years ago: "What is the square root of -1?": "The square root of -1 is not defined because you cannot take the square root of a negative number."

So you are proposing that a couple of hundred years ago, in 1823, a hypothetical ChatGPT would not have been trained on the works of Leonhard Euler, from 80 years before that.

That actually sounds about right. (-:
