Understanding the Limitations of Mathematical Reasoning in Large Language Models

Thanks I think. My general vibe is - we are still confounding "wow this is neat" & "this is really useful" in this space. LLMs will lead to some real use cases & products.

I think we are seeing spaghetti against the wall / LLMs as a hammer right now. A lot of what we are seeing thrown out there is a misapplication of LLMs that will slowly fade away.. It is likely other techniques / models are required for some of the applications people are throwing LLMs at.

Feels reminiscent of "blockchain".

Yup, I agree with all of that.

Even though I see a lot of potential in the tech, it's still very obvious that people don't know how to use it to the best advantage and are hammering screws with it.
