DU WIRST NIEMALS ALLEINE MARSCHIEREN

I don't know if the AGI claim makes sense but the math capability of this LLM is a major advance. ChatGPT has some ability to turn word problems into equations or give a proof of a well-known theorem. For instance, I asked ChatGPT for several proofs that there are infinite prime numbers and it provided them, but I think they're part of the training set so it's just rephrasing proofs it knows and it didn't take long to start repeating itself. But GPT-4 is giving a novel proof, and while this isn't the world's hardest problem it is a challenging one.

This is fascinating. GPT-3, from my experimentation, has a lot of problems with maths. If it seems to have a proof somewhere in it's training, it's fine, but I struggled getting coherency out of it when discussing problems that don't currently have proofs. I spent a while talking to it about Goldbach's and I realized after a bit that it was considering 4 a prime number, which was strange.

This proof is pretty good though. It's about how I'd have tackled it anyway
