Researchers at the University of Virginia and Google challenge the prevailing notion that longer chain‑of‑thought prompts improve large language model performance. They introduce the Deep‑Thinking Ratio (DTR), which measures the proportion of tokens that only stabilize in the final layers of a transformer, showing a strong positive correlation with accuracy. Using DTR, the Think@n method halts low‑scoring candidates after just 50 tokens, achieving higher accuracy on the AIME‑25 benchmark while cutting inference cost by roughly half. The findings suggest that internal computational depth, not output length, drives model quality.
