Can you give an example? Have you tried it recently with the higher-end models?

I have asked chatgpt reasoning model to solve chess endgames where white had king and a queen vs king and a rook on a 7x8 chessboards. So to compute value for all positions and find the position which is the longest win for white.

Not creative, not novel and not difficult algorithmic task. But it requires some reasoning, planning and precision.

It failed miserably.

I think you need to be more specific about which "chatgpt reasoning model" you used. Even the free version of chatgpt has reasoning/thinking now but there are also o1-mini, o1, o1-pro, o3-mini, o3, and o4-mini and they all have very different capabilities.

o4-mini-high did make an error I had to point out, on the first attempt: https://chatgpt.com/share/680eeea2-264c-800e-8497-3903ea6309...

My favorite example is implementing NEAT with keras dense layers instead of graphs. Last time I tried with claude 3.7, it wrote code to mutate the output layer (??). I tried to prevent that a few times and gave up.

This NEAT? https://web.archive.org/web/20231205130538/http://www.cs.ucf...

Is the idea to use a keras dense layer to represent a weighted graph by identifying the input nodes with the corresponding outputs?

The idea is to evolve the multi layer dnn using ga

Is there a precise description of what you're trying to do? Maybe the task you gave Claude?

Are you collecting works for anthropic lol
