    You say this like human “figuring” isn’t some “autocomplete bullshit”.

        My point wasn’t that LLMs are capable of reasoning. My point was that the human capacity for reasoning is grossly overrated.

        The core of human reasoning is simple pattern matching: regurgitating what we have previously observed. That’s what LLMs do well.

        LLMs are basically at the toddler stage of development, but with an extraordinary vocabulary.
