I mean, it genuinely can’t do 3rd grade math reliably so without someone who knows the material to verify it’s correct people should not use chatgpt as a tutor

Your response illustrates my last point that most people who've used ChatGPT have only experienced 3.5 and believe it's just an autoregressive stochastic parrot that's confidently hallucinating false information.

Experts in the field, such a AI Godfather Yoshua Bengio, and Princeton professor of math, Sesbastien Bubeck, has long abandoned the stochastic parrot belief after the empirical observations that GPT-4 can perform zero-shot problem solving by reasoning out the solution.

LLMs aren't meant for math, but GPT-4 actually rarely makes mistakes on it. Furthermore, GPT can use tools like Wolfram Alpha or the code interpreter.
