  • Human Cognition: Human cognition encompasses the mental processes involved in acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses. Some key aspects of human cognition related to reasoning include:
    • **Deductive Reasoning**: Drawing logical conclusions from given premises. Humans use deductive reasoning to apply general rules to specific situations.
    • **Inductive Reasoning**: Making broad generalizations from specific observations. This allows humans to form hypotheses and theories based on patterns.
    • **Abductive Reasoning**: Inferring the most likely explanation from an incomplete set of observations. Humans use this for diagnosis and problem-solving.
  • Artificial Intelligence Systems: AI systems, including large language models (LLMs), aim to replicate aspects of human-like reasoning:
    • **Rule-Based Systems**: Early AI used explicit logical rules for deductive reasoning.
    • **Machine Learning**: Modern AI uses inductive reasoning to learn patterns from data.
    • **Probabilistic Models**: Enable abductive reasoning by inferring likely explanations.
    • **LLM-Based Reasoners**: Large language models like GPT-3 can perform multiple reasoning types by leveraging their broad knowledge base[4].
