Exciting, mechanistic interpretability has a dedicated lecture in the syllabus of a Cambridge CS masters course! The field has come so far in the past few years ❤️
The slowly-unfolding premise of the Good Place is that everyone is damned. They are damned because they participate in the modern world; they buy from sweatshops, they eat chocolate, they fly in airplanes while the poorest people in the world see their harvests fail thanks to…
Take a break from arxiv/LW/AF. Sit in the woods with a random textbook and mull new ideas away from interp community lockstep. Diverge. Don’t compete with a saturated subtopic, maybe you’ll get to take weekends off. Premature overinvestment comes from monoculture.

I've recently learned about Algebraic Positional Encoding from @bgavran3 and isnt this the coolest breakthrough in mathematical approaches to transformers in the last few years arxiv.org/abs/2312.16045
LLMs are dramatically worse at ARC tasks the bigger they get. However, humans have no such issues - ARC task difficulty is independent of size. Most ARC tasks contain around 512-2048 pixels, and o3 is the first model capable of operating on these text grids reliably.
This is a really creative and well-executed paper on using "black-box interpretability" methods to understand and control model cognition. Especially impressed by the many applications explored IMO this is an important direction; this paper sets the field on an excellent path!

On Reddit's statistics forum, the most common question is "What test should I use?" My answer, from 2011, is "There is only one test" allendowney.blogspot.com/2011/05/there-…
Mechanistic interpretability gives us rich explanations of models. But can we convert these explanations into formal proofs? Surprisingly, yes! Mech interp helps write short proofs of generalization bounds — and, shorter proofs provide more mechanistic understanding. 🧵
perhaps growing up is realising that 'growing up' was a comforting lie
maybe the most exciting interp result I’ve seen all year (if it ends up being true for interesting reasons): a meaningful step towards uncovering the type of the residual stream

fyi the real reason i've been ignoring you is: - i want to reply - i want to be able to give you the attention and focus you deserve - i never feel like i have enough energy to properly do that

mechinterp people: does anyone have a good (formal?) definition of 'feature' that doesn't assume the linear representation hypothesis? like, if I have some points in high-dim space, what makes them "the composition of several features" as opposed to "some random points"
very interesting that every frontier lab interp team is working on sparse autoencoders (SAEs) and ~ no one in academia is
