one third plus one half of one third is one half.
I think thats an issue with AI, it has been so much trained on complex questions that now when you ask a simple one, it mistakes it for a complex one and answers it that way
It's auto-complete. It knows that "4" is the most common substring to follow "2 + 2" in its training. It's not actually doing addition.
Can i out pendant you?
The issue is it's an LLM. It puts words in an order that's statistically plausible but has no reasoning power.
Sure, but, what does that have to do with the AI answer? Wait.. Are you an AI?
