>What's 9 times 9? I can tell you it's 81 from sheer memorization. I can probably invoke 9 x 9 + 1 = 82 without needing to do any calculation
Performing math how you suggest is little more than memorization except you've just memorized a different chain in the process.
>That is a close equivalent to trying to do with math token prediction.
This isn't going to become true no matter how much you repeat it. You've consistently made assertions that are trivially proven false.
>Token predictions will not converge on correct arithmetic algorithms.
Yes it will. It literally will. This isn't some debate. This is something that has been researched.

You think you have an understanding of Language Models and token prediction. Unfortunately you don't.
