Idk but ironically, I had to re-read the first part of GP's comment three times, wondering WTF they're implying a mistake, before I noticed it's the car wash, not the car, that's 50 meters away.

I'd say it's a very human mistake to make.

>> It'll take you under a minute, and driving 50 meters barely gets the engine warm — plus you'd just have to park again at the other end. Honestly, by the time you started the car, you'd already be there on foot.

It talks about starting, driving, and parking the car, clearly reasoning about traveling that distance in the car not to the car. It did not make the same mistake you did.

I don't want my computer to make human mistakes.

It may be inescapable for problems where we need to interpret human language?

We truly do not need to lower the bar to the floor whenever an LLM makes an embarrassing logical error, particularly when the excuses don't line up at all with the reasoning in its explanation.

LLMs do not have trouble reading, it didn't make the mistake you made and it wouldn't. You missed a word, LLMs cannot miss words. It's not even remotely a human mistake.
