They train on sneer-problems now:

Here’s the “ferry‑shuttle” strategy, exactly analogous to the classic two‑ferryman/many‑boats puzzle, but with planes and pilots

And lo and behold, singularity - it can solve variants that no human can solve:

      Pretty much. Our friend up top (diz/OP) has made a slight hobby of poking the latest and greatest LLM releases with variants of these puzzles to try and explore the limitations of LLM “cognition”.
