This is hardly programmer humor… there is probably an infinite amount of wrong responses by LLMs, which is not surprising at all.

I don't know, programs are kind of supposed to be good at counting. It's ironic when they're not.

Funny, even.

If I program something to always reply “2” when you ask it “how many [thing] in [thing]?” It’s not really good at counting. Could it be good? Sure. But that’s not what it was designed to do.

Similarly, LLMs were not designed to count things. So it’s unsurprising when they get such an answer wrong.

the 'I' in LLM stands for intelligence
