One might observe:

• Chat formating, and how janky the "thinking" block is.

• How words are broken up into tokens, not characters.

• How particularly funky that gets with numbers.

• Precisely how sampling "randomizes" the answers by visualizing "all possible answers" with the logprobs display.

• And, thus, precisely how and why carb counting in ChatGPT fails, yet a measly local LLM on a desktop/phone could get it right with a little tooling or adjustment.

This is exactly what OpenAI/Anthropic don't want you to do. They want users dumb and tethered, like a cloud subscription or social media platform. Not cognizant of how tools they are peddling as magic lamps actually work. And why, and how, they're often stupid.
