Anthropic

Anthropic researchers developed a tool, called J-lens or Jacobian Lens, which is a mathematical filter that pushes aside all of Claude's background tasks to focus on what it's really thinking about at any given time. Basically, it looks at Claude's internal calculations to predict what its output will be. This J-lens can help researchers answer questions such as: "If a specific signal flashes right now in layer 20, how much does that increase or decrease the mathematical probability that the AI model will type out the word 'banana' five words from now?" Next, the Anthropic researchers proved t

Model distillation is a common technique used by AI companies to build variations of their models, especially smaller, faster options. But no company would be okay with a rival using their model to train the competition. But that's what Anthropic alleges. The fake accounts supposedly asked Claude a ton of very complex and detailed questions related to its advanced software engineering and agentic reasoning features. The responses filled in a picture of the model's workings, accelerating Alibaba's own development of competing AI systems, Anthropic claimed. The conundrum is obvious. Large langua
