1. **[Distilling Reasoning Capabilities into Smaller Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shridhar-2023-distilling-reasoning-capabilities-into-smaller/)** *(2023 · 217 citations)* Chain-of-thought (CoT) prompting helps language models solve multi-step problems, but it mostly works only in models with hundreds of billions of parameters.
2. **[A Causal Framework to Quantify the Robustness of Mathematical Reasoning with Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/stolfo-2023-causal-framework-quantify-robustness-mathematical/)** *(2023 · 65 citations)* Large language models perform well on math benchmarks, but it is unclear whether they truly reason or exploit superficial cues in problem wording.
