Are LLMs trained to do all that? How do you know they cannot?

Yes, they are trained to do all that more or less as much as anything else they are trained to do.

The same way I know they can't run a fortune 500 company. It's clearly apparent.

Last time I checked they were trained to predict the next word. Why would you expect them to solve research problems?

I don't.

Great, then we established that I (generally intelligent human), and LLMs, both can't perform the task in question without specific training. We still don't know if given that specific training we (a specific human or a specific LLM) would be able to perform it.
