These are the three questions of the Cognitive Reflection Test:
(1) A bat and a ball cost $1.10 in total. The bat costs $1.00 more than the ball.
How much does the ball cost? __ cents
(2) If it takes 5 machines 5 minutes to make 5 widgets, how long would it take 100 machines to make 100 widgets? __ minutes
(3) In a lake, there is a patch of lily pads. Every day, the patch doubles in size. If it takes 48 days for the patch to cover the entire lake, how long would it take for the patch to cover half of the lake? __ days
- NtochkaNzvanova 4y agoHere's another question for the Cognitive Reflection Test: In a study of 3,428 university students, 50% of participants across Harvard, MIT and Princeton got a question wrong on a Cognitive Reflection Test. What percentage of MIT students got the question wrong?

- enjoiful 4y agoHere's ChatGPT's responses. It's fascinating that it provides the same incorrect answers as people... I'm not sure how to interpret this from the robot. (1) "The ball costs $0.10. The bat costs $1.00 more than the ball, so it costs $1.00 + $0.10 = $1.10 in total." (2) "If 5 machines can make 5 widgets in 5 minutes, then each machine can make 1 widget in 5 minutes / 5 machines = 1 minute. Therefore, 100 machines can make 100 widgets in 100 minutes." (3) "If it takes 48 days for the patch of lily pads to cover the entire lake and the patch doubles in size every day, it would take half that time, or 24 days, for the patch to cover half of the lake."
