LLMs are good with symbolic manipulation but can't reason.

You can skirt around not reasoning in research math because so much of it is just extremely tedious symbolic manipulation.

You can't cheat with advanced fourth grade math, though. They don't know algebra yet and can't substitute verbosity for reasoning.
