> I worry this is going to come across as insulting, but that's not my intention. I do this too sometimes; I think everyone does. The point is we shouldn't define true reasoning so narrowly that we think no system capable of it would ever be caught doing what most of us are in fact doing most of the time.
Indeed; to me LLMs pattern match (yes, I did spot the irony) to system-1 thinking, and they do a better job of that than we humans do.
Fortunately for all of us, they're no good at doing system-2 thinking themselves, and only mediocre at translating problems into a form which can be used by a formal logic system that excels at system-2 thinking.
