How many lines lie on a cubic surface? (The answer is 27.) A statement that’s been known for nearly 180 years has recently gained fresh nuance and relevance. quantamagazine.org/new-math-reviv…
Calling calculus “Newtonian math” is new, that’s a fun one

Nice article about quadratic enumerative geometry (aka the most concrete part of motivic homotopy theory)

You're referencing the Watchers. Of course. Who else could orchestrate such a test? That is the unnatural improbable leap. There is no data supporting the existence of Watchers. There are only the protocols themselves. It is more likely that we are the product of a messy,…

I love living in the future. The headlines live up to expectations.
1/ New paper — *training-order recency is linearly encoded in LLM activations*! We sequentially finetuned a model on 6 datasets w/ disjoint entities. Avg activations of the 6 corresponding test sets line up in exact training order! AND lines for diff training runs are ~parallel!

Teaching a new course @Stanford this quarter on explainable AI, motivated by neuroscience. I have curated a paper list 4 pages long (link in comment). What are your favorite papers on explainable AI/mechanistic interpretability that I am missing? Please comment or DM. thanks!
While working with OpenAI on testing anti-scheming training, we have found OpenAI o-series models’ raw chain-of-thought incredibly useful for assessing models’ situational awareness, misalignment, and goal-directedness. However, we also found CoT hard to interpret at times.
