## Reasoning
Standard is just autocompletion. Models just try to infer or recall what the most probable next word would be.
Chain of Thought tells models to _show their work_. It _feels_ like the model is calculating or thinking.<br/>
What it really does is just increasing the chances that the answer is correct by breaking the user's questions in
smaller, more manageable steps, and solving on each of them before giving back the final answer.<br/>
The result is more accurate, but it costs more tokens and requires a bigger context window.
At some point we gave models the ability to execute commands. This way the model can use (or even create) them to get
or check the answer, instead of just infer or recall it.
The ReAct loop (reason+act) came next, where the model loops on the things above. Breaks the request in smaller steps,
acts on them using functions if necessary, checks the results, updates the chain of thoughts, repeat until the request
is satisfied.
Next step is [agentic AI][agent].
## Concerns
- Lots of people currently thinks of LLMs as _real intelligence_, when it is not.
- People currently gives too much credibility to LLM answers, and trust them more than they trust their teachers,
accountants, lawyers or even doctors.
- AI companies could bias their models to say specific things, subtly promote ideologies, influence elections, or even
rewrite history in the mind of those who trust the LLMs.
- Models can be vulnerable to specific attacks (e.g. prompt injection) that would change the LLM's behaviour, bias it,
or hide malware in their tools.
- People is using LLMs mindlessly too much, mostly due to the convenience they offer but also because they don't understand
what those are or how they work. This is causing lack of critical thinking and overreliance.
- Model training and execution requires resources that are normally not available to the common person. This encourages
people to depend from, and hence give power to, AI companies.
