Meta researchers have introduced a technique called 'System 2 distillation' that enhances the performance of large language models (LLMs) in complex reasoning tasks. This breakthrough, developed by Meta's FAIR team, allows LLMs to perform reasoning tasks more efficiently, using fewer resources. The technique aims to integrate System 2 thinking, a concept from cognitive psychology that involves deliberate and logical reasoning, into AI models. This advancement is expected to significantly impact the future of AI, making it more capable of handling sophisticated reasoning challenges.
