Siri's location dependency for unrelated questions on iPhone 16 Pro Max

When I ask Siri a question unrelated to MY location, she tells me she can't answer until I provide my location. for example: Siri where is Mt. Rushmore? She replies: "I can't answer that until I know your location"! I'm NOT asking for directions, JUST TELL ME WHERE IT IS! This is very frustrating. This never happened before recent software updates. I have a 16 pro max and location services IS turned on. Is anyone else having this problem or have a fix for this! Thanks

I think that it is just a limitation of Siri's ability to interpret your question. I you ask something line "tell me about Mt. Rushmore" or "in what country and state is Mt. Rushmore located", you may get a response that s not location dependent.
