> AI (LLMs) is probably 90% of the way to human levels of reasoning

Considering LLMs have 0 level of reasoning, I can't decide if it's a bad take, or a stab at the average human's level of reasoning.

In all seriousness, the actual numbers vary from 13% to 26%: https://fortune.com/2025/02/12/openai-deepresearch-humanity-...

My take is that there are fundamental limitations to try to pigeon-hole reasoning to LLMs, which are essentially a very very advanced autocomplete, and that's why those % won't jump too much too soon.

Whenever people claim that LLMs are not capable of reasoning, I put them into a category of people who are themselves not capable of reasoning.

Whenever people claim that LLMs are capable of reasoning, I put them into a category of people who are themselves able to reason as much as an LLM.
