Latent Recurrent Thoughts: Recurrent Refinement of Proposed Latents for Reasoning with Frozen LLMs
Chain-of-thought reasoning unfolds in discrete token space: each step is committed as text, errors propagate, and eliciting good traces presupposes traces to imitate. Reasoning instead in a model's continuous representation space - where intermediate states are vectors rather than words - sidesteps these constraints, but leaves open how those latent states should be computed. We approach this…
