Apple study finds "a fundamental scaling limitation" in reasoning models' thinking abilities
LLMs designed for reasoning, like Claude 3.7 and Deepseek-R1, are supposed to excel at complex problem-solving by simulating thought processes. But a new study by Apple researchers suggests that these models actually perform worse as tasks become more difficult and, in some cases, they "think" less.<br /> The article Apple study finds "a fundamental scaling limitation" in reasoning models' thinking abilities appeared first on THE DECODER.
