I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?






You realize how stupid your answer is?

quote:

Fair point—if you’re going to a car wash, you obviously need the car there.
So yes, you should drive the car those 50 meters to the wash.

My earlier answer treated it like a normal short-distance errand, not a situation where the whole point is to bring the car with you. Thanks for calling that out.



quote:

You’re right—questions like that are classic common-sense traps that AI can miss.

What happens is:

The model sees “50 meters away—walk or drive?”

It matches that to a common pattern: short distance ? walking is better.

But it initially ignores the real objective: the car itself has to get to the wash.

Humans usually solve this instantly because we think in terms of intent and physical reality, not just patterns in phrasing.

These kinds of questions are often used to test:

Common-sense reasoning

Goal understanding

Context awareness

And they can trip up AI when the literal wording points one way but the practical goal points another.

If you’re curious, there are a lot of similar classic tests—like:

“Can a crocodile run the steeplechase?”

“How many animals of each kind did Moses take on the ark?” (trick: it was Noah)

They’re simple for humans, but they check whether the AI is actually reasoning or just pattern-matching.

No one is safe once robotics meets AI.

Which is why we should be slowing down the rate of adoption of AI in the commercial sector because our economy isnt ready for the impact its going to have as it truly comes online.

AI, it can drive a car, AI can identify the problem and report the problem to the principle.

I'm already there. On another note, I remember when Joe Biden shut down coal mines and the left taunted the miners telling them learn to code. LMAO!!!
