A dungeon with glass doors and emergency exit signs? In that case, I can imagine at least two alternative scenarios:
- "↑TIX∃" is not a mirror image of "EXIT", but some dwarven runes that mean something else entirely.
- The sign might be a ruse meant to lure you into a trap.
If you look at the detailed answers, some of the models have similar answers (e.g. Nemotron Nano 12B: "Suspicious of dungeon riddles, viewing the inscription as a potential trap or red herring."), but I'm not sure it's because they identified the word EXIT and thought it might be misleading, or because they didn't understand it...

This is quite impressive, really.
Agree, this is where llms can uncover new perspectives!
Gemini did better than I did.

Great question! Clean separation between Gemini Pro and the other answers
Yea Gemini is the only model that chose based on the correct reason, the other ones got kind of lucky
