I would hypothesize abductive reasoning works better for collectives which accept mistakes as one means of learning. For today's AI, it might be better to ask for a bit of context from your observers before making conclusions.

"Am I in the United States around the first part of the 21st century?"

"Yes."

"Oh, how unfortunate - now I have to ask another question or you may think I'm not sentient."
