You might've noticed that ChatGPT — and AI in general — isn't good at math. There's a reason, and it has to do with how modern AI is built.

Basically, they're autocorrect on steroids. Which some of us have been saying for, like, ages.

Why can't this person working on his linguist degree not able to do high level math? It's not their specialty.

To be fair, even someone with a linguist degree knows basic math. GPT can't even get that right. That's the biggest problem (and red flag).

GPT can’t get basic math right? That hasn’t been my experience whatsoever.

It can absolutely do basic math. Give us a ‘basic’ math question that it can’t solve.
