I'd never have guessed models commit to their final answer this early, often within the first 20% of reasoning, across math/logic tasks and model families. The rest is mostly hedging that doesn't change their mind. And turns out they encode this internally, we can decode it! 🧵👇

Are all the CoT steps necessary? In our latest paper, we find evidence for the existence of a commitment boundary, marking a sharp transition from no/mid guesses to the model final answer across various reasoning tasks and model families. Thread 🧵👇

You can easily save up to 65% of compute while improving performance on reasoning tasks 🤯 👀 Meet EAGer: We show that monitoring token-level uncertainty lets LLMs allocate compute dynamically - spending MORE on hard problems, LESS on easy ones. 🧵👇

📢 New paper: Applied interpretability 🤝 MT personalization! We steer LLM generations to mimic human translator styles on literary novels in 7 languages. 📚 SAE steering can beat few-shot prompting, leading to better personalization while maintaining quality. 🧵1/
