For math, I'm kind of surprised that it can't recognize "this is math" and then handle that with normal calculations instead of the language model. I assume we'll see that before long.

I really want Wolfram|Alpha to be integrated into this... that'd be nice. Also if they could make W|A any faster than a glacier while there at it that'd be great.
A good trick is to ask it to translate the request into commands of your choosing. Like ask it to generate python code to make the calculation for example. Another thing that works well is to turn it into a command extraction problem, give it examples of the kinds of commands you want, and build an interpreter for those commands.

I agree, we’re not far from that, or we’re there now.
