BGDon<p>Whoa! LOTS to unpack here. Weekend Reading! </p><p>Anthropic reveals research how AI systems process information and make decisions. AI models can perform a chain of reasoning, can plan ahead, and sometimes work backward from a desired outcome. The research also provides insight into why language models hallucinate. </p><p>Interpretation techniques called “circuit tracing” and “attribution graphs” enable researchers to map out the specific pathways of neuron-like features that activate when models perform tasks. See the links below for details. </p><p>Summary Article: <a href="https://venturebeat.com/ai/anthropic-scientists-expose-how-ai-actually-thinks-and-discover-it-secretly-plans-ahead-and-sometimes-lies/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">venturebeat.com/ai/anthropic-s</span><span class="invisible">cientists-expose-how-ai-actually-thinks-and-discover-it-secretly-plans-ahead-and-sometimes-lies/</span></a> </p><p>Circuit Tracing: <a href="https://transformer-circuits.pub/2025/attribution-graphs/methods.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">transformer-circuits.pub/2025/</span><span class="invisible">attribution-graphs/methods.html</span></a> </p><p>Research Overview: <a href="https://transformer-circuits.pub/2025/attribution-graphs/biology.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">transformer-circuits.pub/2025/</span><span class="invisible">attribution-graphs/biology.html</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Anthropic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Anthropic</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LLMs</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Claude" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Claude</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/CircuitTracing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CircuitTracing</span></a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/neuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>neuroscience</span></a></p>
