that's what I like to think vs that's what I'd like to think

Both phrases are correct, but they have slightly different meanings. 'That's what I like to think' implies that the speaker believes something to be true, while 'That's what I'd like to think' suggests that the speaker wishes or hopes that something is true. The choice between them depends on whether the speaker is stating a belief or expressing a desire.
