Not only could none of them do it – even after about 20 troubleshooting prompts – they all made the same mistakes (repeatedly).

They are excellent at dissecting, refining, and constructing language. However, I have not seen anything that makes me think they are remotely close to logical, or that they can construct anything novel. I have al...
