This is completely incorrect.

GPT-4 performs quite well on reasoning and critical thinking assessments.

I feel like programming language designers should see themselves as quite beleaguered at the moment.

Microsoft stock has been going gangbusters for the past 6 months.

What's their excuse for layoffs?
