We introduce a comprehensive Linguistic Benchmark designed to evaluate the limitations of Large Language Models (LLMs) in domains such as logical reasoning, spatial intelligence, and linguistic understanding, among others. Through a series of straightforward questions, it uncovers the significant limitations of well-regarded models to perform tasks that humans manage with ease. It also highlights the potential of prompt engineering to mitigate some errors and underscores the necessity for better training methodologies. Our findings stress the importance of grounding LLMs with human reasoning and common sense, emphasising the need for human-in-the-loop for enterprise applications. We hope this work paves the way for future research to enhance the usefulness and reliability of new models.

  1. Large Language Models Show Signs of Alignment with Human Neurocognition During Abstract Reasoning

    q-bio.NC 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Only the largest tested LLMs (about 70 billion parameters) match human accuracy on an abstract reasoning task, and the internal geometry of their best layers correlates moderately with human frontal EEG activity.

  2. LLM-Based Config Synthesis requires Disambiguation

    cs.NI 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    LLM-based incremental config synthesis needs user disambiguation of insertion placement; Clarify uses differential questions and binary search to resolve it.

  3. Investigating Intersectional Bias in Large Language Models using Confidence Disparities in Coreference Resolution

    cs.CL 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The abstract claims LLMs show up to 40% coreference confidence disparities across intersectional identities, but the article body is an unrelated paper on robotic fruit handling.
