Reasoning models are just LLMs, and who said LLMs were a dead end was just wrong. Now, to be wrong happens (even if the version of being wrong, in this instance, was particularly aggressive, particularly in denial of evidences). However, trying to change the history and the terminology in order to be in the right side is, for me, unacceptable.

They’re unprofitable by themselves, and adding extra processing to minimize hallucination / add “reasoning” doesn’t make them more profitable.

LLMs are a dead end because they burn 2-3x what they generate in revenue. That is unsustainable for any company in the long run.

We only need look at the evidence to come to this conclusion. There is no need to redefine any terminology.
