How does social network structure amplify or stifle behavior diffusion? Turns out, complex contagions are more complicated than we thought … (1/7)

Today we published a targeted transparency framework for frontier AI development.

Our framework focuses on major frontier model developers while exempting startups and smaller developers to avoid burdening the broader ecosystem.

[Thomas Wolf @Thom_Wolf]

We’re releasing the top 3B model out there

SOTA performances

It has dual mode reasoning (with or without think)

Extended long context up to 128k

And it’s multilingual with strong support for en, fr, es, de, it, pt

What do you need more?

Oh yes we’re also open-sourcing all the recipes and data to train it. The results of weeks of exploration and hyper-parameters testing.

New Anthropic research: Why do some language models fake alignment while others don't?

Last year, we found a situation where Claude 3 Opus fakes alignment.

Now, we’ve done the same analysis for 25 frontier LLMs—and the story looks more complex.

Some causes of burnout

Agent to agent transactions may be commonplace in the not too distant future - however what's the risk and potential loss for the people involved? Our recent study looked at exactly that.
