Very interesting that only 71% of humans got it right.
And that score is matched by GPT-5. Humans are running out of "tricky" puzzles to retreat to.
What this shows though is that there isn’t actual reasoning behind it. Any improvements from here will likely be because this is a popular problem, and results will be brute forced with a bunch of data, instead of any meaningful change in how they “think” about logic
Plenty of people employ faulty reasoning every single day of their lives...
The goal when building AI isn't to replicate dumb humans
Are you sure?
That's why when I need help with something I don't go out and ask a random human.
