Claude can't properly count the number of characters in a sentence. It's asking a lot to assume it can get pixel perfect.

LLMs can, for example, write a script to calculate all permutations of the levenshtein distances between words in a sentence and deliver it before the average programmer even understands what this means. Trivialy.

You're just holding it wrong if you're asking it to simply count the characters in a sentence.
