Comment Comment by stevenhuang It's not clear any of that follows at all.Just look at inductive reasoning. Each step builds from a previous step using established facts and basic heuristics to reach a conclusion.Such a mechanistic process allows for a great deal of "predictability" at each step or estimating likelihood that a solution is overall correct.In fact I'd go further and posit that perfect reasoning is 100% deterministic and systematic, and instead it's creativity that is unpredictable. parent stevenhuang 1 year ago
