Nota bene - there is a fair amount of research that indicates models outputs and ‘thoughts’ do not necessarily align with their chain of reasoning output.

You can validate this pretty easily by asking some logic or coding questions: you will likely note that a final output is not necessarily the logical output of the end of the thinking; sometimes significantly orthogonal to it, or returning to reasoning in the middle.

All that to say - good idea to read it, but stay vigilant on outputs.
