Did someone not know this like, pretty much from day one?

Not the idiot executives that blew all their budget on AI and made up for it with mass layoffs - the people interested in it. Was that not clear that there was no “reasoning” going on?

Seriously, I've seen 100x more headlines like this than people claiming LLMs can reason. Either they don't understand, or think we don't understand what "artificial" means.
