- Natural Language Autoencoders Produce Unsupervised Explanations of LLM Activations
Abstract We introduce Natural Language Autoencoders (NLAs), an unsupervised method for generating natural language explanations of LLM activations. An NLA consists of two LLM modules: an activation verbalizer (AV) that maps an activation to a text description and an activation reconstructor (AR) that maps the description back to an activation. We jointly train the AV and AR with reinforcement learning to reconstruct residual stream activations. Although we optimize for activation reconstruction, the resulting NLA explanations read as plausible interpretations of model internals that, according to our quantitative evaluations, grow more informative over training. We apply NLAs to model auditing. During our pre-deployment audit of Claude Opus 4.6, NLAs helped diagnose safety-relevant behaviors and surfaced unverbalized evaluation awareness—cases where Claude believed, but did not say, that it was being evaluated. We present these audit findings as case studies and corroborate them using

- Text-Conditional JEPA for Learning Semantically Rich Visual Representations
Image-based Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture (I-JEPA) offers a promising approach to visual self-supervised learning through masked feature prediction. However with the inherent visual uncertainty at masked positions, feature prediction remains challenging and may fail to learn semantic representations. In this work, we propose Text-Conditional JEPA (TC-JEPA) that uses image captions to reduce the prediction uncertainty. Specifically, we modulate the predicted patch features using a fine-grained text conditioner that computes sparse cross-attention over input text tokens. With such…

This post covers joint work with Wilson Wu, George Robinson, Mike Winer, Victor Lecomte and Paul Christiano. Thanks to Geoffrey Irving and Jess Riedel for comments on the post. In ARC's latest paper, we study the following problem: given a randomly initialized multilayer perceptron (MLP), produce an estimate for the expected output of the model under Gaussian input. The usual approach to this problem is to sample many possible inputs, run them all through the model, and take the average. Instead, we produce an estimate "mechanistically", without running the model even once. For wide models, our approach produces more accurate estimates, both in theory and in practice.

- Why AI breaks without context — and how to fix it
Presented by Zeta Global The gap between what AI promises and what it delivers is not subtle. The same model can produce precise, useful output in one system and generic, irrelevant results in another. The issue is not the model. It's the context. Most enterprise systems were not built for how AI operates. Data is scattered across tools. Identity is inconsistent. Signals arrive late or not at all. Systems record events but fail to connect them into a continuous view. AI depends on that continuity. Without it, the model fills in the gaps so the result looks polished but lacks relevance. This is where most teams get stuck. A better model does not fix fragmented, stale, or commoditized data. Gartner estimates organizations lose an average of $12.9 million annually due to poor data quality. AI does not solve that problem, it surfaces it faster and at a greater scale. The mirror test There is a fast diagnostic test for this. Give your AI a perfect, high-intent customer signal and see what c

- A review of “Investigating the consequences of accidentally grading CoT during RL”
Last week, OpenAI staff shared an early draft of Investigating the consequences of accidentally grading CoT during RL with Redwood Research staff. To start with, I appreciate them publishing this post. I think it is valuable for AI companies to be transparent about problems like these when they arise. I particularly appreciate them sharing the post with us early, discussing the issues in detail, and modifying it to address our most important criticisms. I think it will be increasingly important for AI companies to have a policy of getting external feedback on the risks posed by their deployments, and in particular having some external accountability on whether they have adequate evidence to support their claims about the level of risk posed; as an example of this, see METR reviewing Anthropic’s Sabotage Risk Report. We at Redwood Research are interested in participating in this kind of external review of evidence about safety. So I am taking this as an opportunity to try out writing th
