alt Hacker NewsApparently you can do the same by simply running it without reasoning, while giving it a thinking tool...
>guys you do know you can just disable thinking, and instead give it a "deep_think" tool, and it will call it with internal CoT reasoning format right?
>gl fixing that

I've been doing that since before reasoning was a thing baked into the models, it always performs better this way. Except for some providers/models where you just can't easily turn it off, now I just avoid them. This way I save tokens and have full control of the reasoning.

its not exactly the same... its tool use spec asking to put thinking in inputs fields... it is a good idea but its not same.
The model is finetuned to enter/leave its thinking mode using special token separators. there's no reason to assume the tool calls induce the same token distribution or produce the model's actual native reasoning trace
