Right, so since you began with a LIE, its results are not based on FACTS.

 Not at all. ChatGPT understands that a correct
simulation does not mean a complete simulation
of a non-terminating input. If you read the 38
pages you will see this.
 

By "Stipulating" your definition, you are just declairing that you work has nothing to do with the actual Halting Problem, because your "definition" is inconsistant and based on LIE.

 ChatGPT immediately recognizes that DD is the halting
problem proof counter-example without even being told.
 

Of course it ia inconherent and incorrect, as it is based on the inproper presumption that there DOES exist a set of patterns that can correctly determine if a program will never halt.

In particular, the pattern you are trying to claim to use, is part of the Halting Program D, DD, and DDD, so it is BY DEFINITION incorrect.

ChatGPT "understands" that any program that must be aborted
at some point to prevent its infinite execution is not a
halting program.

LLM do not "understand" anything. They are just a markovian chain processing the most likely following symbol based on the preceding context.

 int main()
{
   DD(); // calls HHH(DD) that must abort its simulation
{       // or the directly executed DD() will never stop running.

Right, and since HHH(DD) aborts its procdessing and returns 0 to DD, that DD will halt, and thus the answer is wrong.
You stupidly confuse the hypothetical HHH that you are thinking of, with the actual HHH that is there.
Yes, a DD' that calls the HHH'(DD') that doesn't abort will be non-halting, but the real HHH isn;t given DD', it is given DD.

 

Sorry, your problem is you are so stupid and brain damaged that you are believing your own lies.

ChatGPT analysis of HHH(DDD) only 12 pages long

I did that once. I took one of your sessions, adding a couple of sentence, and it admitted that HHH was wrong.

 

It seems you don't even understand the ground rules for how logic works.

 Only scatterbrained nonsense believes that a non-terminating
input must be simulated until it terminates.
 

Since that is the CONSEQUENCE of non-halting, we see who is the scatterbrain.
Note, I never said the DECIDER needed to do that, only the correct simulation of the input that the decider is reporting on.
It seems that concept is just too abstract for your wittle brain.
