The Swiss Cheese of Reasoning
This chapter examines the reasoning capabilities of current language models, comparing them to human cognition through the metaphor of Swiss cheese, highlighting the knowledge gaps inherent in both. The discussion leads to a philosophical debate on the nature of reasoning in AI and whether advancements can lead to genuine understanding rather than mere simulation. It also explores the implications of these limitations for future AI developments and the potential for improved reasoning through better knowledge representation.
