For true reasoning you really need to introduce the ability for the circuit to intentionally decide to do something different that is not just a random selection or hallucination - otherwise we are just saying that state machines "reason" for the sake of using an anthropomorphic word.
- chrisweekly 2y ago"intentionally decide" is at least as problematic a term as "reason", no?
- drdeca 2y agoNo, I don’t think “reasoning” should require intent. I think a prolog program should be something that can be described as reasoning.
- ToValueFunfetti 2y agoThis restriction makes it impossible to determine if something is reasoning. An LLM may well intentionally make decisions; I have as much evidence for that as I have for anybody else doing so, ie. zilch. I'm not even sure that I make intentional decisions, I can only say that it feels like I do. But free will isn't really compliant with my model of physical reality.
