This paper proposes implementing restricted logical inference using self-attention networks in Large Language Models (LLMs) constructed with transformer networks. The authors demonstrate the potential of LLMs by analyzing self-attention networks, which are key components of transformer networks. Their approach focuses on operations rather than semantics and shows that hierarchical constructions of self-attention networks with feed-forward networks can implement top-down derivations for a specific class of logical formulae. Additionally, they show that bottom-up derivations are also possible for the same class. The authors conclude that LLMs implicitly possess the power of logical inference.

This paper explores how large language models (like those used in chatbots) can make logical conclusions using special networks called self-attention networks. The researchers show that these networks can be used to understand and draw logical conclusions from certain types of statements. They do this by analyzing how the networks work together with other components, like feed-forward networks. This is important because it shows that large language models have the ability to make logical decisions without being explicitly programmed to do so.
