Reply to comment by Available_Lion_652 in [D] GPT-4 is really dumb by [deleted]

Yeah, totally right—and I understand that the specifics really matter in some cases (for example calculating a starship trajectory).

What intrigues me, is that in ideas of concept, of logic, this specific error isn't meaningful. i.e. if the sum of three primes was initially correct the approach wouldn't be invalid. There is something in this.

Not quite :). The second operation (a + b + c)^2014 = a^2014 + b^2014 + c^2014 is false. It does not understand complex math operations. To be sincere solving the above problem means it can do better math than most humans.

Precisely right; I hadn't applied my mind to that expansion. My comment is erroneous.
