Having a structured pattern of thoughts and beliefs doesn’t make that structure correct. LLMs can’t outline their own thoughts in clearly defined structure too.

Having a structured pattern of thoughts and beliefs doesn’t make that structure correct. LLMs can’t outline their own thoughts in clearly defined structure too.
Let’s see where there are gaps with your thinking: First the topic of the convo is that we don’t know anything about LLMs so we can’t make a claim that LLMs can’t reason.
Your response doesn’t have anything to do with that anymore. You’ve went off topic into hype, what anthropic is trying to find out about LLMs and a bunch of other tangents and have failed to address the topic of: LLMs can’t reason.
Even LLMs don’t hallucinate past the give topic.
- proc0 1y agoI think I've already given sufficient logic to demonstrate LLMs don't "reason" like humans (whatever it is we want to call "reason", it is not the same). You keep using "hallucinate" to compare LLMs and humans, but the word itself demonstrates the difference. Human hallucination is about incorrect perception of the world, not generating tokens. These are meaningful differences. You say "we don't know anything about LLMs" but we do know how to make them, and how they are structured, and Anthropic has been making progress in explaining their side effects. Your argument is not sound, and would include any form of computation as reasoning, so we could just say our phones and laptops are all doing reasoning as well. After all we don't know what the human brain is doing and it probably is a computer, therefore all computers reason. As you can see that does not sound right.
