is it making the "facts" up or just extracting them from the internet / a dataset?

It just told me a Jaguar can run at 120mph, so I don't think the facts are real!

It told me the earth was smaller than the moon and that the human mouth was 2.3 million square feet.

Replace "Fun" with "Wrong" and this would be a little more accurate.

Some from internet, some made up.

Example of made up fact:

>Fun fact: The only place in the world where you can see two moons at the same time is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The moon Phobos orbits closer to the planet Mars than the moon Deimos orbits closer to Earth.

I'm not sure what the use of a fact bot that makes up facts is
