This is what I personally consider as "reasoning" ... knowledge generalization and application across domains.

Less reasoning than a dimension of brute force unfamiliar to human brains.

  • Trying to diminish this as brute force (something by the way that is categorically not 'unfamiliar to human brains' - as anyone who has every worked on complex slippery problems will tell you) is foolish, when the models hypothesize along the way to their solutions. That's reasoning.

    • The dimension of brute force unfamiliar to human brains is "well-read with zero judgement", where connections can be made even if they're not thought through.

      Grinding through completions isn't reasoning.
