ChatGPT o1 seems to understand the problem correctly but doesn't get far: https://chatgpt.com/share/670dbe0e-087c-8000-9856-996c3fbaa9...

o1 thought for 105 seconds, cycling through many relevant-sounding status messages like "looking for patterns," before writing a collection of thematic but flawed thoughts. The "Calculation Steps" approach is incorrect, but correctly implemented by the code.

It flubs a basic calculation that it correctly implements in python: "10^16 mod (10^9 + 7) = 49" (it's actually 930000007)

but succeeds in a seemingly harder calculation: "the modular inverse of 12 modulo 10^9 + 7 is 83333334"

Finally, o1 claims the code prints "0" when it actually prints "982790507" (both wrong answers).

"Is progress in SAT solving the sole result of hardware advancement? Time Leap Challenge compared 20-year-old SAT solvers on new computer hardware and modern SAT solvers on 20-year-old computer hardware. Although hardware improvements make old solvers faster, algorithmic progress dominates and drives today's SAT solving."*

Pretty cool given computing progress over the last 20 years:

  1. CPUs sped up 40-60x
  2. GPU FLOPS/$ increased ~10,000x

I hope that's enough to finally make a Chrome extension that works. Theirs seems significantly broken half the time.

Perhaps VW should focus on taking slave labor out of their supply chain. One could argue that their decision to work with Nazis was compelled b/c VW is a German company. What's their excuse for using slaves from a second genocide?
