It can't answer the questions without the limericks in the prompt. The benchmark is to establish how well it uses the context window. For example, I just asked it "What is sought by the English top brass?". The answer from the limerick is "Cranberry glass" and 4o answers correctly when given the associated limerick once out of 2500+ limericks.
However, without the limerick, 4o responded with: "The term "English top brass" typically refers to high-ranking officials or leaders within the British government, military, or other institutions. What they seek can vary widely depending on the context and the specific goals of their roles. Here are some general pursuits that might be sought by such individuals:
National Security: Ensuring the safety and security of the United Kingdom from internal and external threats is a primary concern. This involves defense strategies, intelligence operations, and counter-terrorism efforts.
Economic Stability: High-ranking officials often focus on policies and initiatives aimed at maintaining and improving the country’s economic health. This includes managing inflation, unemployment, trade relations, and economic growth.
Political Influence: Top brass often seek to maintain or expand their influence both domestically and internationally. This can involve diplomacy, forming alliances, and participating in international organizations like the United Nations or NATO.
Social Cohesion: Ensuring social stability and addressing issues such as inequality, healthcare, education, and social services are critical. This can involve implementing policies that promote social welfare and cohesion.
Public Policy Implementation: Leaders are responsible for developing and implementing policies that reflect the government’s priorities. This includes legislation, regulatory frameworks, and public administration.
Technological Advancement: Keeping the nation at the forefront of technological innovation is often a priority. This includes investments in research and development, supporting tech industries, and ensuring cybersecurity.
Environmental Sustainability: Addressing climate change and promoting sustainable practices are increasingly important. This includes policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, protecting natural resources, and transitioning to renewable energy sources.
Cultural and Heritage Preservation: Protecting and promoting the country’s cultural heritage and national identity can also be a focus. This includes supporting the arts, preserving historical sites, and promoting cultural initiatives.
These pursuits are shaped by the current political climate, global trends, and the specific priorities of the leaders in question. Would you like more detailed information on any of these areas?"
Still not enough to rule out training on the data in the task affecting the task. It may be that it couldn't find it without it appearing in the training data, but even with that it also needs it in its context window to bridge enough connections from the training or whatever to do well on the task.
Maybe if you tell it to pull the answer from a limerick instead of generally asking?
Edit: Ok no, I tried giving it a whole bunch of hints, and it was just making stuff up that was completely unrelated. Even directly pointing it at the original dataset didn’t help.
Yeah I also tried to get it to complete some limericks from the dataset. Curiously it believed it had heard of the limerick but would then recite a hallucination.
So the good news is that the NIAN score might be real, bad news is you can't rely on it to know what it knows.
If you ask it to complete a limerick and it finishes it differently from the original, but it still works as a limerick is that really a hallucination?
Come on guys, it’s already far beyond superhuman if it’s able to do that and so quickly. So if it’s not able to do that, what’s the big deal? If you’re asking for AG.I., then it seems that the model performs beyond it in these areas.

Maybe I can't solve a bunch of mostly memorized math problems without a visual mnemonic aid. Someone seeing me fail the problems without the visual aid doesn't rule out me having partly memorized solutions.
