Profiles of Mind: How LLMs Perform on Assessments of Cognitive Development

2026-07-02

Abstract excerpt

We compared four Large Language Models (LLMs; ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, DeepSeek) with humans on tests of cognitive development, assessing relational integration, linguistic awareness, general and domain-specific reasoning, and cognitive self-awareness to specify how LLMs compare with humans along cognitive development hierarchies. LLMs also discussed how Descartes’s Cogito applies to them and rated themselves on asp...
