    @knowmadd if you walk, you are, in fact, carrying heavy equipment: the car. 😄

      @knowmadd Did you also do a survey how many people would be tricked by this question? I, for one, admit am one, because my initial reaction to your post was: what's wrong with that answer?

      @erwinrossen really? My first reaction in my head was was 'what a dumb question'

        @knowmadd This is a very sad reflection on the minds of people today, the inability to read a question fully, the wrong standards, the assumptions made, everything.

          @knowmadd Google's gets it right, but then goes on to ramble about stuff. Someone needs to instruct these things not to analyse or "break this down" so much.
          All in all, as expected, disappointing.

            @knowmadd next, ask a reasonable question, and then simply state "Seahorse Emoji, now."

              @knowmadd @hook Gemini says you have to take the car. Maybe it's somehow connected to how it scores better on Vendibench? It has a better baseline for common sense.

                @knowmadd What I like most is that the Qwen website shows this little light bulb with the text “thinking completed.” 🙂

                  @knowmadd yeah, LLMs will replace us all ... they are so much better at {looking frantically through my notes} ... providing answers with high confidence that are utter nonsense.

                    @knowmadd I tried to reproduce the result with Gemini and ChatGPT. Either the AI has learned something new, or there is another reason for this. Neither fell for the trick question and even responded with irony in some cases.

                      @knowmadd i got this : "Verdict: Walking is the best choice here—it’s quick, eco-friendly, and practical for such a short distance. Plus, you’ll avoid driving a dirty car to the car wash!"

                              Don't forget, we don't know when there's a "human in the loop".

                              There may or may not be some low wage workers involved in the answer.

                              Some like Google has enormous investments from Saudi Arabia. Oracle is "training" 50,000 Saudi Arabians in AI.

                              Or is it Lebanese?

                              How many "answers" are just 700 employees in India, is hard to know. The AI bubble is rife with fraud.

                              A major AI scandal has shaken the tech world as Builder.ai, once valued at $1.5 billion, has filed for bankruptcy. The company, backed by Microsoft and a Qatari sovereign fund, falsely claimed to build apps in minutes using AI, while actually relying on hundreds of human engineers in India.

                                  @knowmadd ignoring the problems of washing a car, I was perplexed that it would say 50m distance is 30 to 40 steps? My strides are nowhere close to 1.2m, maybe half that, and I'm a full grown person.

                                    "how will I wash the car once I've arrived if I choose to walk?"

                                    I'll leave you all to try this out and see the results.

                                    One output was "you got me", another was "wash the car as it's already there" after telling me to walk. The others double down in some interesting ways.

                                    @knowmadd this sounds like the nerd grocery shopping problem.

                                    A: "Darling, please go shopping. Bring 2 liters of milk. If they have eggs, bring 10."

                                    Later the nerd returns.

                                    A: "Why did you bring so much milk?!"

                                    B: "They had eggs. You said, I should bring 10 liters of milk if they have eggs."

                                      @knowmadd I’d say it’s right on the nose! The LLM specifically says that a special case is if you have heavy equipment to carry, and your car is certainly heavy equipment that you’d need to carry if you don’t drive it there!

                                        @knowmadd I definitely want to see the list of things you should take with you! Like "a bathing suit" or "a banana"? 🤔

                                          @knowmadd gpt-oss also recommends walking. I asked if I should buy a 50m hosepipe to take with me and it rightly reminded me: "No. A 50m hosepipe is excessive for washing a car 50m from your house — you don’t need to stretch it that far. A 25m hose is sufficient and more manageable." Can't argue with 120bn in logic. 🤡💦
