    Not sure how it works but it doesn’t seem to scour the internet, it tries to use logic but not super well it seems:

    My test for it:

    A farmer, a chicken, a dog and a bag of grain are trying to cross a river on a small boat, the farmer only had room for himself and one of either the dog, the chicken or the grain to take with him. He must bring all three across to the other side safely. However he can’t leave the dog alone with the chicken because the dog will eat it and he can’t leave the chicken alone with the grain because the chicken will eat it, what’s the solution?

    Chatgpt’s wrong answer:

    One solution would be for the farmer to take the chicken across the river first. He can then leave the chicken on the other side of the river and go back to pick up the dog. The farmer can then bring the dog across the river and leave it with the chicken. Finally, the farmer can go back one more time to pick up the bag of grain and bring it across the river to join the chicken and the dog. This way, the chicken is never left alone with the grain and the dog is never left alone with the chicken, so both the chicken and the grain will remain safe.

    • I kept asking I to ry again and told it why it was getting it wrong but it could never come to the right conclusion_niko
    • What's the answer?shapesalad
    • the hint is drop one off pick one up_niko
    • yes, but if you take grain across first - you leave he dog with the chicken. If you take the dog, you leave chicken with grain.shapesalad
    • if you take chicken.ok, dog and grain left is ok. But, next you got to either take dog or grain and leave it with chicken, so back to no solution.shapesalad
    • the trick is drop one and bring one back for a return journey_niko
    • amazed shape has never encountered this riddlekingsteven
    • ^ to be fair, he may not have a chicken, dog, grain, and/or a river to traverseGnash
    • ^lol same. This is 7 year old stuff. The only reason GPT got it wrong is because children that young aren't playing around with it yet.garbage
    • In grade school I got in trouble for the solution: "Dog and rice in the boat, and I swim behind the boat with the chicken".garbage
    • the drop one, bring one back, still doesn't work. So I take the chicken firstly... now I take the grain, and bring back the chicken. Now i take grain...shapesalad
    • ... but fox has eaten my chicken and Putin has torpedo'd my boat. So I'm f*ck any way I go about it.shapesalad
    • C'mon shape...Take chicken. Come back for dog. Drop dog bring chicken back. Take grain, leave chicken. Drop grain with dog, go back bring chicken for last trip.ETM
