I think that’s because it’s a Chinese Project. Same thing with Ant Design Components, which are really awesome but not as well known as they should be.

You’re right that it’s analogous in concept, but strategy distillation happens at a higher level: it encodes and transfers successful latent reasoning patterns as reusable “strategies,” without necessarily requiring direct gradient updates

I can see where you’re coming from, but not really. Unlike an RNN, the main transformer still processes sequences non-recurrently. The “sidecar” model just encodes internal activations into compressed latent states, allowing introspection a

I can assure you it’s not a joke. Compute power is increasing at a ridiculous pace, and highly capable models are getting smaller and smaller, now at the 30b parameter size and under. So even if it wouldn’t be pragmatic now, it could become

Interesting, it certainly wouldn’t take up much additional space, but I wonder if it would have any real impact, since it seems somewhat orthogonal to finding a faithful low-dimensional encoding of the activations.

I recently started thinking about what a shame it is that LLMs have no way of directly accessing their own internal states, and how potentially useful that would be if they could. One thing led to the next, and I ended up developing those i

This is great, I was debating whether I should do my latest project using the new OpenAI Responses API (optimized for agent workflows) or using MCP, but now it seems even more obvious that MCP is the way to go. I was able to make a pretty c

I used to use McFly too, but atuin is much better. Worth trying, takes one minute to install it.

I feel like humans don’t have great intuitions around the ideal format for an LLM. But an LLM probably does have a good sense for what would work well for itself. And also I think that we shouldn’t necessarily expect to find LLM targeted do

I haven’t, but I bet it would work pretty well, particularly if you tweaked the prompts to explain that it’s dealing with Ancient Greek or whatever and give a couple examples of how to handle things.
