My example is asking for way less than what you're asking for.

Here is something I do not see with reasonable humans who are cooperative: Me: "hey friend with whom I have plans to get dinner, what are you thinking of eating?" Friend: "fried chicken?" Me: "I'm vegetarian" Friend: "steak?"

Note that this is in the context of four turns of a single conversation. I don't expect people to remember stuff across conversations or to change their habits or personalities.

Your goalpost is much further out there.

Go join a dating app as a woman, put vegan in your profile, and see what restaurants people suggest. Could be interesting.

Thanks for your engagement but it would help if you read my comment the first two times.

You've personally demonstrated that humans don't have to be reasonable and cooperative, but you're not at all refuting my claim.

I get your comment, which is that only the worst humans are going to suggest a steak place after you've stated you're vegetarian. And that ChatGPT does so as well.

I'm disagreeing and saying there's far more people in that bucket than you believe.

I know many people at my university that struggle to read more than two sentences at a time. They'll ask me for help on their assignments and get confused if I write a full paragraph explaining a tricky concept.

That person has a context length of two sentences and would, if encountering a word they didn't know like "vegetarian", ignore it and suggest a steak place.

These are all people in Computer Engineering. They attend a median school and picked SWE because writing buggy & boilerplate CRUD apps pays C$60k a year at a big bank.
