Ask 10 different models then
1 comments

Same problem: The models are also correlated on what they can and can't solve.

To give you an extreme example, I can ask 1000000 different models for a counterexample to the 3n + 1 problem, and all will get it wrong.

No. What a bizarre example to choose. This is so easy to demonstrate. They will all come back with the exact same correct answer
If it's so easy, go do it. You can publish the result in any math journal you like with just a title and a number, because this is one of the hardest problems in mathematics.

For reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

My guy, every LLM has read Wikipedia
I don't know if you're purposely being dense. The first sentence of Wikipedia is that this is a famous unsolved problem.

So no, sampling 1000000 LLMs will not get you a solution to it. I guarantee you that.

It will get you the correct answer, not a solution. Once again it’s a terrible example, I don’t know why you used it. It’s certainly not a gotcha
