> I’ve also been trying to find the simplest examples where ChatGPT fails. I think these questions are way too hard. The questions I’ve been asking are ones a kindergartener can answer. For example:
> If I have 1 cupcake on a plate and I flip the plate upside-down, how many cupcakes will be left on the plate
> ChatGPT: If you flip the plate upside-down, there will still be 1 cupcake on the plate. Flipping the plate over does not change the number of cupcakes that are on it.
A little more probing is... interesting.
Q: If I have 1 cupcake on a plate and I flip the plate upside-down, how many cupcakes will be left on the plate
ChatGPT: If you flip the plate upside down, the number of cupcakes on the plate will not change. There will still be one cupcake on the plate.
Q: Think about what happens to the things on a plate when it is inverted. Does that change your answer?
ChatGPT: If you flip the plate upside down, the cupcake will fall off the plate unless it is held in place by something else. In that case, there will be no cupcakes on the plate.
However, if the cupcake is held in place and does not fall off the plate, then there will still be one cupcake on the plate, even after the plate is inverted. It is important to consider the specific circumstances and any additional factors that may affect the situation.
