Sure one word is more precise than the other, but in the context of this question that's beside the point. If one makes the claim 'it's not reasoning, it's just X,' the burden of proof is that X is district from reasoning. That 'reasoning' is an ambiguous term, long makes it harder to argue that X is not compatible with. I was pointing out that, at least superficially, they seem potentially compatible.
Again I'm not at all trying to argue that LLMs do reason. I'm trying to understand how one definitively argues that they don't.
- naasking 2y agoI agree I wouldn't a priori exclude reasoning as being a form of search, I was just addressing the question of reduction providing clarity. I do think people are far too dismissive of classifying something as reasoning simply because the latter is vague where the reduction is generally something understood.
