It only "passes the bar exam" when AI, or some other flawed process, is the examiner. See e.g. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10506-024-09396-9 for a debunk.

That's not a debunk. "Calls into question" does not equal "in truth, it failed the exam. "

No, it’s a debunk. ChatGPT-4 scored in the 48th percentile (15th percentile in essays) amongst individuals that passed the bar exam. That’s very poor performance.

Thus it scored higher than almost half the humans who passed the test. In other words it too passed the bar.
