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.

The Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO) is a key objective for training generative models like Variational Autoencoders (VAEs). It parallels neuroscience, aligning with the Free Energy Principle (FEP) for brain function. This shared objective hints at a potential unified machine learning and neuroscience theory. However, both ELBO and FEP lack prescriptive specificity, partly due to limitations in standard Gaussian assumptions in models, which don’t align with neural circuit behaviors.
