UnverifiedThe study observed a clear lack of correlation between the correctness of answers and the validity of reasoning traces, with models frequently arriving at correct answers even when the reasoning traces are completely invalid.75% similarUnverifiedTo truly achieve reasoning rather than merely attaining in-distribution accuracy, it is not sufficient to simply have the hypothesis class cover the correct rules.74% similarVerifiedBenchmark leaderboards measure a model's test-taking ability rather than its ability to solve real problems71% similarUnverifiedMore parameters do not necessarily mean a smarter or less error-prone model; what matters is the model's actual task performance (such as correctly citing evidence and acknowledging missing information).71% similarUnverifiedThere is as yet no mature industrial-grade solution for reusing reasoning traces, because the validity of reasoning steps is strongly dependent on the context and assumptions established by preceding steps.71% similar
