For sure it can be taught. But I don't think the way to teach it is to give it a bunch of sentences from the internet and expect it to figure out advanced reasoning. It has to be explicitly tuned into the objective. A more interesting question is, then how can we do this for all domains of knowledge in a general manner? Well, that is the question. In other words, what is that master algorithm for learning? There is one (or a collection of them) for sure, but I don't think we are much close to it. ChatGPT is simply pretending to be that system, but it's not.
