LaTeX not copied from conversation...

Problem Description

I had a conversation that looked like so:

When I ran the bookmarklet and displayed the Markdown in VS Code, I was expecting to see the LaTeX formatted text, but I saw this:

The Markdown code was this:

# ChatGPT

## PROMPT 1

you know how in electrical circuits the potential drop across all elements in series is equal to sum of potential drop across each element in the series?

## RESPONSE 1

Yes, I understand. In an electrical circuit, when resistors (or other components) are connected in series, the total voltage drop across the series combination is equal to the sum of the voltage drops across each individual component.

Mathematically, if you have resistors R1,R2,…,RnR\_1, R\_2, \\ldots, R\_nR1​,R2​,…,Rn​ connected in series, and a total voltage VVV applied across the entire series, the voltage drop across each resistor V1,V2,…,VnV\_1, V\_2, \\ldots, V\_nV1​,V2​,…,Vn​ can be expressed as:

V\=V1+V2+⋯+VnV = V\_1 + V\_2 + \\cdots + V\_nV\=V1​+V2​+⋯+Vn​

Where V1,V2,…,VnV\_1, V\_2, \\ldots, V\_nV1​,V2​,…,Vn​ are the voltage drops across R1,R2,…,RnR\_1, R\_2, \\ldots, R\_nR1​,R2​,…,Rn​ respectively.

Expected Behavior

It should have been this:

## RESPONSE 1

Yes, I understand. In an electrical circuit, when resistors (or other components) are connected in series, the total voltage drop across the series combination is equal to the sum of the voltage drops across each individual component.

Mathematically, if you have resistors $R_1, R_2, \ldots, R_n$​ connected in series, and a total voltage $V$ applied across the entire series, the voltage drop across each resistor $V_1, V_2, \ldots, V_n$,​ can be expressed as:

$$V = V_1 + V_2+ \cdots + V_n$$

Where $V_1, V_2, \ldots, V_n$ are the voltage drops across $R_1, R_2, \ldots, R_n$​ respectively.

Which would look like so:

Thanks for the comprehensive report! The responses are converted to markdown using the turndown package and ChatGPT uses KaTeX markup. If the conversion step would be skipped for responses containing LaTeX document.querySelector('.katex').textContent still yields the same result:

Vtotal=V1+V2+V3+⋯+VnV_{\\text{total}} = V_1 + V_2 + V_3 + \\dots + V_nVtotal​=V1​+V2​+V3​+⋯+Vn​
