The original question was whether LLM's are "smart" in a human-like way. I think that if you gave a human a computer, he'd be able to solve 3-digit multiplications. If LLM's were human-like smart, they could do this too.

Did someone train LLMs with "access" to a computer? If not, why would you expect them to be able to use something they have never seen?
“It’s right there, you stupid llm! Dammit, YOU’RE RUNNING ON IT!”
I mean, I'm running on incredible amounts of highly complex physics and maths, but that doesn't mean I can give you the correct answer to all questions on those.
