LATENT MULTI-HOP REASONING

This research investigates whether Large Language Models (LLMs) perform multi-hop reasoning – a process of connecting multiple pieces of knowledge – when presented with complex prompts. The study found evidence of this latent reasoning process, particularly in the initial step, but utilization of the connected knowledge varied and showed a scaling trend with model size, suggesting both challenges and opportunities for future LLM development.
