Transformers and Chain of Thought Prompting: A Breakthrough in AI Problem-Solving

Introduction

A recent statement by Denny Joe, founder and lead of the reasoning team at Google DeepMind, has fundamentally changed our understanding of Transformers in artificial intelligence. Joe claimed that they have mathematically proven Transformers can solve any problem, provided they are allowed to generate as many intermediate reasoning tokens as needed. This breakthrough is detailed in a paper titled "Chain of Thought Empowers Transformers to Solve Inherently Serial Problems."
