Are LLMs capable of non-verbal reasoning?

Large language models (LLMs) have excelled in predicting language tokens but face challenges in complex reasoning tasks. Researchers are now developing models that operate in 'latent space,' which is the hidden computational layer before language generation. This new approach shows improvements in accuracy for specific logical problems, indicating promising directions for future research.

The COCONUT model, developed by researchers at Meta's FAIR and UC San Diego, allows reasoning without language constraints, enhancing logical processing. This model can maintain multiple potential next steps simultaneously, enabling more efficient reasoning paths. Although it did not significantly outperform traditional models on simpler tasks, it excelled in complex logical conditions, showcasing its potential for broader reasoning applications.

• Researchers propose reasoning in latent space for improved LLM performance.

• COCONUT model enhances logical processing by avoiding language constraints.
