What situations are you thinking of that requires reasoning?

I’ve used LLMs to create software i needed but couldn’t find online.

Exactly. The naming of the technology would make you assume it’s intelligent. It’s not.

This is a bad example… If I ask a friend "is strawberry spelled with one or two r’s"they would think I’m asking about the last part of the word.

The question seems to be specifically made to trip up LLMs. I’ve never heard anyone ask how many of a certain letter is in a word. I’ve heard people ask how you spell a word and if it’s with one or two of a specific letter though.

If you think of LLMs as something with actual intelligence you’re going to be very unimpressed… It’s just a model to predict the next word.
