Ok, you have a moderately complex math problem you needed to solve. You gave the problem to 6 LLMS all paid versions. All 6 get the same numbers. Would you trust the answer?

    One step might be to try and understand the basic principles behind what makes a LLM function. The Youtube channel 3blue1brown has at least one good video on transformers and how they work, and perhaps that will help you understand that “reasoning” is a very broad term that doesn’t necessarily mean thinking. What is going on inside a LLM is fascinating and amazing in what does manage to come out that’s useful, but like any tool it can’t be used for everything well, if at all.

        Funny, but also not a bad idea, as you can ask it to clarify on things as you go. I just reference that YT channel because he has a great ability to visually show things to help them make sense.
