Advanced Reasoning models came out like 4 months ago lol
Advanced reasoning? Having LLM talk to itself?
Lul yes but no, but they are clearly better at many types of tasks.
For example? Citations?
Pretty sure these "tasks" are meaningless metrics made up by pseudo-scientific grifters.
AlphaFold 3 which can help in the prediction of some proteins. Although it has some limitations, it cannot be used in all cases, only in what it can perform without any problem.
Small bits of code, language related tasks, basic context understanding, not metrics I have literally measured simply noticed has improved compared to non reasoning models in my homelab testing. 🤷♂️
