> It isn't doing classical reasoning per se, but neither does it match an unreasoning brute process. What we call "classical reasoning" is also running on neural network trained by predicting data. I think the distinction is only there because we mix levels of abstraction - when talking about AI we focus on the lowest levels, when talking about people we focus on the higher levels. Try asking LLM to explain its reasoning and after dismissing the "I'm just AI" disclaimers it will usually generate logical chain that could just as well be generated by a human. Even if you think it's not "really" reasoning - just pretending - pretending means it's running a virtual machine and that virtual machine is reasoning. Same difference.
