@GaryMarcus This is a good paper on limitations but of course we’re not at the end of the story for LLMs/LRMs.

Breaking New Results.

In a rational world, this important work would be the final nail in the coffin of LLMs

and so much nonsense about “reasoning models”

People may choose to ignore it, for a while, but the writing is on the wall.

🧵 1/8 The Illusion of Thinking: Are reasoning models like o1/o3, DeepSeek-R1, and Claude 3.7 Sonnet really "thinking"? 🤔 Or are they just throwing more compute towards pattern matching?

The new Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) show promising gains on math and coding benchmarks,

The statement is part of a discussion on the limitations and future potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Large Reasoning Models (LRMs). It suggests that while there may be some return on investment (RoI) in continuing with current approaches, exploring new methods might yield better results.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not cause harm and is a neutral contribution to the discussion. [+1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    It promotes understanding by suggesting that fresh approaches might be more beneficial, encouraging innovation. [+1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages constructively with the ongoing debate, without personal attacks. [+1]
