Introduction A reasoning LLM is a language model trained not just to predict the next word, but to work through a problem step by step and verify its own conclusions before answering  the approach behind models like OpenAI’s o1 and DeepSeek’s R1. This guide condenses a practical path to building a compact 300–400M parameter GPT-style […]
