 I need to toy around with it more. Thanks! 
 This is what AI does

** Problem: If 6 workers can complete a job in 4 days, how long would it take 8 workers to complete the same job?

Step 1: Find the value of one unit (in this case, the worker-days required)
- 6 workers × 4 days = 24 worker-days

Step 2: Use that value to calculate the desired quantity
- Total worker-days required = 24
- With 8 workers: 24 ÷ 8 = 3 days **

That's too long and confusing. Simply, if 6 workers take 4 days, one worker will take 24 days. So 8 workers will take 24/8 = 3 days

 
 Where's even the need to talk about "worker-days" and wtf is that??

It's simple math

6 workers take 4 days
1 worker takes 6x or 24 days
8 workers take 1/8th or 24/8 = 3 days

I've mostly found that AI solutions are not intuitive  
 It's better at writing problems than solving them

 Lol. No.

I guess I could've prhased it a little better. 
 awwwee. not your fault. my curiosity got the better of me LOL 🤣 it was my fault ha ha 🤦😅 
 🫡🥰 
 Toy with it all you want 😂

AI can't apply logic so it can't "solve" math 
 Buddy, you understand neither AI nor math if you think AI can "apply logic" to solve math 
 Lol I'm pretty good at math. I don't understand AI that well. On that one, I agree. That's why I said I'll toy around with it more😂.
