Why does ChatGPT often give outdated or incorrect instructions until I point it out?

I’ve noticed that when I ask ChatGPT to walk me through steps on a device or app, it often directs me to menus, buttons, or features that no longer exist. Only after I tell it the option isn’t there does it suddenly “realize” the feature was removed or changed. It ends up wasting a lot of time and mental energy. Why does this happen?
