Ok I see what happened here. You said the numbers "above" and it saw A in the column name. In hexadecimal that's a 10. But you also said "numbers" plural, and "1" isn't plural. So it took A + 2 + 3 = 15.

Makes perfect sense, maybe just write better prompts next time. /s

Doesn't even need the /s. That is largely how those glorified search engines work.

Woah woah woah, stop it right there. I won't stand for slander against actual search engines!

No it isn't. The above is using logic, however bad it may be. LLMs are not. It's just a statistical model. It doesn't think.

I doubt it. The column name isn't part of the data.

However "the numbers above" is data.

3 letters + 7 letters + 5 letters= 15 letters.

Thank you for that. I have the prompt discussion with a friend all the time.
