I think you underestimate their capabilities quite a bit. Their auto-regressive nature does not lend well to solving 2D problems. See these two solutions GPT suggested: [1] Is any of these any good? [1] https://gist.github.com&#x

Inserting negation to words is a very bad practice. Instead of saying: "Not cloudy at all today", say "Clear sky today, some scattered clouds though". In general, always speak in a positive straightforward way, even when

There is also Mercury LLM, which computes the answer directly as a 2D text representation. I don't know if you are familiar with Mercury LLM, but you read correctly, 2D text output. Mercury LLM might work better getting input as an ASC

Couldn't disagree more. Sorting a finite number of elements in a sequence, is a very narrow application of AI, akin to playing chess. Usually very simple approaches like RL work totally fine for problems like these, but auto-regression

It is very procedural/object oriented. This is not considered good Rust practice. Iterators make it more functional, which is better, more succinct that is, and enums more algebraic. But it's totally fine for a thought experiment.
