Mixtral 8x7b only gets the sister question correct when I ask it to show it's work, but also shows that it's aware of the brain teaser:

GPT 4 gets it right.

GPT 3.5 gets it hilariously wrong if I change the question slightly:

User: Julia has 8 brothers, each of them has 5 sisters. How many sisters does Julia have?

Assistant:

Julia has 8 brothers, and each of them has 5 sisters. Since Julia is one of those sisters, she has 8 brothers + 1 (herself) = 9 sisters.

Also on 3.5 I tried this:

User: Julia has 8 brothers, each of them has 5 sisters. How many sisters does Julia have? Show your work step by step.

Assistant: Julia has 8 brothers, and each of them has 5 sisters, including Julia herself. So, Julia is one of those 5 sisters for each of her 8 brothers.

To calculate how many sisters Julia has, you can simply multiply the number of brothers by the number of sisters each brother has:

8 brothers * 5 sisters per brother = 40 sisters

Therefore, Julia has 40 sisters in total.
