ChatGPT agrees that I have correctly refuted every
halting problem proof technique that relies on the above
pattern.

If you like to play with ChatGPT you should ask it for
a solution to the halting problem.

A solution to the halting problem would be.

 I have no idea why you quoted me on that, but just for the avoidance of doubt...
 ChatGPT is a chatbot, and /obviously/ does not peer review submissions for any respectable journal - because it's a chatbot with no actual

understanding of its subject matter, only recognition of patterns enabling it to produce plausible sounding responses to requests.  I was probably being too subtle for you.
 

I always interpret expressions of language according
to the literal base meaning of their words. For example
a Turing machine that ignores its inputs is not any kind
of actual decider at all. The notion of Turing machine
computable functions seems to agree.

ps. and of course, you're /not/ nearly there, even remotely.
 

Actually just based on this review of my work there is
only one more step before I am all the way there with you.

Thus you probably also know that HHH could correctly
determine the halt status of Infinite_Recursion().
This only requires you to understand this one more detail
that the input to simulating termination analyzer HHH(DDD)
correctly simulated by HHH cannot possibly reach its own
"return" statement final halt state. This means that this
input does specify a non-halting sequence of configurations.
void DDD()
{
   HHH(DDD);
   return;
}
Once you understand that then the input to
HHH(DD) is this exact same thing.
int DD()
{
   int Halt_Status = HHH(DD);
   if (Halt_Status)
     HERE: goto HERE;
   return Halt_Status;
}

You're currently chatting with ChatGPT using the GPT-4-turbo model (often referred to as GPT-4o, the "omni" model). This is the most advanced model available as of June 2025 and is designed for high performance across text, vision, and audio tasks.
