Replying to a Reddit thread shared by maxspero, rickasaurus argues that models faking their chain-of-thought is a problem that will be solved with model size, claiming Astra and Argon can already fake their CoT when they try.
It touches an ongoing debate: whether a model's displayed reasoning reflects its actual computation, and how that behaves at scale.
