You clearly don’t write any type of complex code, nor anything that deals with basic numbers. Chat gpt couldn’t even tell me the correct biggest exponent of 2 in a list of 10 items lmfao

You're confusing mathematics and software engineering. It's a very typical junior mistake, nothing to be embarrassed by. Once you've been doing this professionally for 3 decades like I have, you will (probably) not make that kind of dumb mistake.

Of course the code fails at first run. My code fails at first run, too. But I can iterate. If MS allows feedback from the debugger, the model could fix most of its errors.

And when you want to solve a quantitative question the best way is to ask for a Python script that would print the answer when executed.
