Decoding Arithmetic Reasoning in LLMs: The Role of Heuristic Circuits over Generalized Algorithms

Marktechpost

A key question about LLMs is whether they solve reasoning tasks by learning transferable algorithms or simply memorizing training data. This distinction matters: while memorization might handle familiar tasks, true algorithmic understanding allows for broader generalization. Arithmetic reasoning tasks could reveal if LLMs apply learned algorithms, like vertical addition in human learning, or if they rely on memorized patterns from training data.
