No one did what the paper actually proposed. It was a nothing burger in the industry. Yet it was insanely popular on social media.

Same with the "llms don't reason" from "Apple" (two interns working at Apple, but anyway). The media went nuts over it, even though it was littered with implementation mistakes and not worth the paper it was(n't) printed on.

Who cares? This is a place where you should be putting forth your own perspective based on your own experience. Not parotting what someone else already wrote.
