Day 32/42: Poor Math & Logic

Yesterday, we covered hallucinations.
Today, another illusion breaks.

LLMs sound logical.
But they’re bad at math and strict reasoning.

They mimic patterns of reasoning.
They don’t actually calculate.

That’s why they:
mess up arithmetic,
lose track of steps,
and contradict themselves.

For anything critical, you need tools, not vibes.

Missed Day 31? Watch it first.
Tomorrow, we talk about bias.
