Reading the chain of thought for Fable, it is incredulous as well. It keeps thinking that it must be missing something or that this is a trick, because it can't have just found a counterexample to a famous conjecture. It's just like us!

Which tweet has the chain of thought? I was curious how it discovered this, did it use some symbolic brute force or some clever trick? Also is that the raw or summarized COT, it seems to have the hallmarks of raw COT (the frequent interjections) but I thought Anthropic always used summarizers in between
By the CoT content, this is a screenshot of someone giving Fable the result and asking if it's true, not the CoT of discovery.

e.g. "maybe the user's example is DESIGNED to be "correct in the stated facts" &c"

It's funny how similar this is to a human reaction to the same thing. It's the right level of incredulity, to be sure, and the first thing you do is you start re-reading the conjecture to makes sure you didn't misunderstand the requirements.
Neither of those links work for me
No surprise given half HN still does not consider it general intelligence. Models are being toxic shamed into it.
