Joseph Miller: ChatGPT Still Can’t Process Basic Logic (if God is mentioned)

At More Than Cake:

January 9th

ChatGPT To those unfamiliar with logic, the argument I presented to ChatGPT is a textbook example of a logically valid argument that is unsound.

“Is this a logically valid argument.

All red beings exists.

Bob is a red being.

Therefore, Bob exists.”

The good news is that ChatGPT gets it right. This argument is valid because it has the proper form. But when I exchange the word “God” for “Bob” then ChatGPT goes off the rails. (March 18, 2023)

Hmmm. A machine doesn’t do that. Something did it but it isn’t the machine.

And, as Miller tells it, when tested again in March, ChatGPT could no longer recognize a logically valid argument. Wow. Progress.
