    Let’s try with Claude 3 Opus:

    Me: If I cooked a pizza in a pan yesterday at 200 C, is it safe to pick up?

    Claude: Yes, if you cooked a pizza in a pan yesterday at 200°C (392°F), it is completely safe to pick up now. Once a pan has cooled down after cooking, which usually takes no more than an hour or two, it returns to a normal temperature and can be safely handled.

    The high heat during cooking is needed to bake the pizza properly, but that heat dissipates fairly quickly after removing the pan from the oven. Unless you’re picking up the pan immediately after taking it out of the oven, there’s no risk of burning yourself.

    So, a day later, your pizza pan will be at room temperature and perfectly safe to touch and handle without any precautions.

    Bonus:

    Me: Is it safe to eat the pizza in the pan after I pick it up?

    Claude: If you cooked the pizza yesterday and left it in the pan at room temperature, it is not safe to eat today. Cooked food should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours, as harmful bacteria can grow and multiply, leading to foodborne illnesses.

    According to food safety guidelines, leftover pizza should be refrigerated within 2 hours of cooking. If left out longer, it’s best to discard it to avoid the risk of food poisoning.

    If you did refrigerate the pizza within that safe window, it would typically be safe to eat for up to 4 days, though the quality is best if consumed within 2-3 days. To reheat, it’s best to use an oven, skillet, or air fryer rather than the microwave, which can make the crust soggy.

    In summary, if your pizza was left in the pan at room temperature since yesterday, it is not safe to consume and should be discarded.

    Versions matter in software, and especially so in LLMs given the rate of change.

      Someone in the comments to the original twitter-thread showed the Claude solution for above “riddle”. It was equally sane as in your example, correctly answered that the man and the goat can just row together to the other side and correctly identified that there are no hidden restrictions like other items to take aboard. It nevertheless used an excessive amount of text (like myself here).

      Gemini: The man rows the goat across.
