Wow, what a great comparison. LLMs are great at reasoning but absolute dogshit at simple arithmetic. If there's a raw calculation involved I always tell it to use python to add it all up.
- enquirewithin 1mo agoThe abacus seems to date back around 4500 years. If your goal is to implement an absurd comment you can use this one next time: instruct your LLM to implement Conway’s Game of Life to implement an abacus. Because, you know, humans are notoriously poor at implementing the x86-64 instruction set in their minds. This is why God had to create Guido van Rossum. Arguably Mathematica would be a better fit, but there are those who frequent this corner of the Internet who rather not have to read anything that might cause them to think about Stephen Wolfram. So I won’t mention it.
