When I think about a problem, I consciously explore a tree (or graph) of possibility chains. This requires a mental space to keep track of “state”. Sometimes jotting things down on paper helps if I can’t keep it all in my head. The process is: - generate some possibilities - rank them based on intuition (this might happen subconsciously!) - ask what if we follow possibility Pn - push Pn on to the stack. - recourse or pop stack if deadened

I feel LLMs are fairly capable when it comes to doing each of those steps in isolation. But not when it is all put together as a process.
