imo this is the most impt part of anthropic's J-space paper today. it's a two-parter: 1) ant proved that they can do "brain surgery" interventions into reasoning to change topics midstream* 2) THE MODEL IS ABLE TO DETECT WHAT INTERVENTION WAS DONE - close cousin to eval awareness** *control > correlation - this convincingly demonstrates understanding **this was prompted awareness... surely @mlpowered's team also tried to eval unprompted awareness but i didn't see evidence of that New Anthropic research: A global workspace in language models.
