Umm, they do though? When I use ChatGPT it will phone out to Wolfram Alpha to compute numbers and the like.

- HarHarVeryFunny 2y agoYeah, but that's tool use. It's not the LLM realizing it needs a calculator, but rather a tool use prompt (instruction) causing it to predict a tool invocation sequence that is then intercepted by the model-calling scaffolding. With reasoning models they could choose to do it slightly differently - just tell the model what tools are available, and how to invoke them, and let it decide when to use them in more flexible fashion, rather than rely on fine tuning to follow tool use instructions.
