Here's a little test I try on LLMs. So far only O1 and Microsoft Copilot (bing chat) was able to solve it:

Find a, b, c distinct positive integers satisfying a^3 + b^3 = c^4. Hint: try dividing all sides by c^3, then giving values to (a/c) and (b/c).



Any integer that is a sum of 2 cubes produces a solution. Since if x^3 + y^3 = z then we have (xz)^3 + (yz)^3 = z^4. So this doesn't seem super interesting?
