Since the car wash test is so popular right now...
Every major AI model is still dumber than humans at basic reasoning.
Deep Dive
A viral 'car wash' logic test highlights a major AI weakness. The Simplebench benchmark, full of similar common-sense questions, reveals all current AI models score below the human baseline of 83%. This includes top models from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google. The benchmark tests practical reasoning, not academic knowledge, exposing a critical gap in AI's ability to handle everyday logical scenarios that humans find trivial.
Why It Matters
This fundamental reasoning gap limits AI's real-world utility and shows true general intelligence is still far off.
