Sadly, it’s a good time to once again share this amazing infographic that we ran at @science.org more than 7 years ago

What surprised me the most was how *early* these divergences by STEM fields emerge.
By age 6, kids already see girls as worse at computer science and engineering. But...there's no early male bias for math. (I made this graph for a broader audience).
Six-year-olds have quite nuanced beliefs!

I don’t think it can be emphasized enough that large language models were never intended to do math or know facts; literally all they do is attempt to sound like the text they’re given, which may or may not include math or facts. They don’t do logic or fact checking — they’re just not built for that
Unfortunately, it repeatedly offers incorrect answers for straightforward math questions. 🧪
