"Sincerely believe in" means nothing at all. None of the LLMs that any of the AI companies have demonstrated have actual reasoning skills because that's not how the technology works.

Its mimicry, and a poor form of it. These companies are talking about "reasoning, thinking AI" as marketing to keep the AI hype cycle going as the actual technology digs deeper into diminishing returns.
