Reasoning Architectures: Chain-of-Thought and Beyond

A deep dive into reasoning architectures: how chain-of-thought, tree-of-thought, and other inference-time compute strategies work and when to use each.

Canon

Each reasoning architecture (chain-of-thought, tree-of-thought, reflection) creates a different cognitive environment for the model, producing different reasoning behaviors.
Charrington traces the biography of machine reasoning from symbolic AI through expert systems to neural chain-of-thought, showing how each era's approach reflected its computational environment.
