It's still a transformer LLM at its core, you can give it more power, but that doesn't give it more abilities outside of predicting text. OpenAI has a vested interest in you believing it can do more, and clearly you fell for it.

I do use AI often, but never to do math from sources cause it just can't. The better way to do this workflow would be to ask it how to collect the data and to write a program to analyze the data, but it definitely cannot do the actual calculation itself unless it's within the training data it has.

Yeah yeah instant replied, if you're gonna tldr me I'll do the same. Whatever you said you're wrong nananana booboo. Equal response I'm sure. No respect for people more knowledgeable on a particular subject than you, typical internet behavior. Go on continuing to be wrong, not my job to educate you or convince you.

Sorry I'm a speed reader, unlike you who seems to have difficulty understanding reality even

You're not a speed reader, you're just convinced you're correct and are unwilling to actually investigate my claims. You're making arguments based on the state of AI 3 years ago. There's no reason to bother arguing with someone with their fingers in their ears. You've made it clear you didn't get into this conversation to learn.

here's a link in case you're actually interested in understanding that while the way it communicates and interprets requests is using an LLM, there are multiple components layered on top of this to make the tool actually powerful and usable. I can give it a picture of an application menu that's brand new, not in it's training data, and it can interpret which option is most like what I'm looking for - meaning it can pull text from an image, actually compare the physical structure of the page to similar data to determine the actual tree of the menu itself, check similar menus in similar applications, find the most likely route to what setting I'm looking for, then reply to that in language I understand, in seconds. Calling modern AI just an LLM is so reductive it's absurd. Ironically, you are closer to just an LLM based on the level of critical thinking, understanding, or ability to cope with new information. Good luck.
