LLMs have access to the space of collective semantic understanding. I don't understand why people expect cognitive faculties that are clearly extra-semantic to just fall out of them eventually.
The reason they sometimes appear to reason is because there's a lot of reasoning in the corpus of human text activity. But that's just a semantic artifact of a non-semantic process.
Human cognition is much more than just our ability to string sentences together.
