What a sloppy reply. You've hijacked a thread on mathematics first to complain that your incompetent attempt to use ChatGPT to find a job failed, but it seems now that this was a ruse to instead begin arguments unrelated to the article at all where you just spam arxiv links you've never read to "prove" that AI is a scam.

This comes across, frankly, as either Dunning-Kruger (classic illusory superiority), or potentially as mental illness. The slop dump is highly reminiscent of how a schizophrenic friend of mine communicates.

Do you really think slopping down a bunch of random arxiv links "proves" that AI is a scam and you're so smart and everyone else isn't?

Most awkwardly for your arxiv slop -- most of this is irrelevant to your central claim, and you've missed papers that are much closer.

For example your LogicGraph paper: "Can't exhaustively enumerate all minimal proofs" is not "can't distinguish Ireland from London".

Or your "Do VLMs Understand 3D Scenes..." is nothing more than citation decoration, completely irrelevant to our discussion.

Or your "Frontier LLMs Still Struggle with Simple Reasoning Tasks" which is potentially your pièce de résistance, it supports brittle multi-step constraint handling, but isn't remotely an eval of a modern web-search agent.

For example, VibeSearchBench would have been far more relevant to your claims https://arxiv.org/html/2605.27882v1 (but still obviously not proof that AI is "a parlour trick")

Going further: my point that we need to discuss your beginner's approach to the harness is substantiated clearly here: https://arxiv.org/html/2605.23950v1

Finally, failure to exhibit human-like generality is not evidence of absence of intelligence. It is evidence that whatever cognitive machinery LLMs possess has a very different error distribution from ours. Your General365, LLMEval-Logic and the Reversal Curse are actually fascinating evidence for that jaggedness, rather than proof of your claim that AI is a scam.

Why are you so upset that someone is criticising LLMs that you call them schizophrenic? (I'd recommend refreshing your memory with this https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html )

Nobody called anyone schizophrenic. They noted that the irrelevant link spam in a reply was reminiscent of schizophrenic posting. If you've spent any sort of time on places like 4chan, you'd understand. I don't think posting the HN guidelines is warranted here.

>Nobody called anyone schizophrenic. They noted that the irrelevant link spam in a reply was reminiscent of schizophrenic posting.

Come on, that's being incredibly pedantic. If I say, your comment reminds me of someone being an asshole, I'm just using a circumlocution to call you an asshole. No?
