GUEST: Intelligence is pervasive, yet its measurement seems subjective. At best, we approximate its measure through tests and benchmarks. Think of college entrance exams: Every year, countless students sign up, memorize test-prep tricks and sometimes walk away with perfect scores. Does a single number, say a 100%, mean those who got it share the same intelligence […]

Are we unlocking new frontiers in AI reasoning, or simply stretching the limits of token memory without meaningful improvements?
