They don't process inputs as binary (they use clusters of symbols, i.e. letter groups) so that's not guaranteed to work

You can ask it if the last digit is odd or even, then.

I did realize that too was a joke, still wanted to point that out

Well, in the sake of pointing things out, GPT-4 can actually correctly answer the prompt, because it arrives at it in the opposite direction. It can tell the integer is even or odd and knows that even or odd integers in binary end in 0 or 1 respectively.
