With just a few days to go until WWDC 2025, Apple published a new AI study that could mark a turning point for the future of AI as we move closer to AGI.
Apple created tests that reveal reasoning AI models available to the public don’t actually reason. These models produce impressive results in math problems and other tasks because they’ve seen those types of tests during training. They’ve memorized the steps to solve problems or complete various tasks users might give to a chatbot.
But Apple’s own tests showed that these AI models can’t adapt to unfamiliar problems and figure out solutions. Worse, the AI tends to give up if it fails to solve a task. Even when Apple provided the algorithms in the prompts, the chatbots still couldn’t pass the tests.
