Reasoning models struggle to control their chains of thought, and that’s good

OpenAI frames an article around the claim that reasoning models struggle to control their chains of thought, and that this is a good thing. Only the title is available here, with no body text, so there are no verifiable numbers, methods, or mechanisms to summarize. The claim relates to reasoning and safety discussions, but any interpretation should stay limited to the headline.

Why it matters: OpenAI presents a contrarian but testable safety claim, so HKR-H/K/R all pass. The excerpt shows the thesis, section headers, and paper link, but not the key numbers, setup, or limits, so this stays high featured rather than P1.
