An early attempt to combine an LLM with a symbolic system by integrating it into Wolfram Alpha produced inconsistent results.

“you could think i'll just say a couple more sentences there um one of the first attempts at this strategy was to put an llm into wolfram alpha as the which is a totally symbolic system right um and not wolfram alpha the intimate mathematica um and the results were were”

“you know hit or miss right and the problem was on the interface getting to the tools if you can really reliably get to the tools then you have a neuro symbolic system that works if you can have the neural networks reliably call the tools that they want um or that they”

“to the problem i should say um then you're golden i think empirically it is”
