We’re still at the “rhyming not reasoning” phase of LLMs. The question of whether we move past rhyming and onto reasoning is a good one, and I’m not sure what I think about it. But I am pretty sure that coding is a lot more like reasoning than it is like rhyming, at least for de novo problems above a certain level of complexity (intellectual challenge) and complication (moving parts).

I remain open minded about what’s next and at the rate things are changing, I wouldn’t rule anything out a priori for now.
