Bottom-up Policy Optimization: Your Language Model Policy Secretly Contains Internal Policies

arXiv:2512.19673v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing reinforcement learning (RL) approaches treat large language models (LLMs) as a unified policy, overlooking their internal mechanisms. In this paper, we decompose the LLM-based policy into Internal Layer Policies and Internal Modular Policies via the Transformer's residual stream. Our entropy analysis of internal policy reveals distinct patterns: (1) universally, internal policies evolve from high-entropy exploration in early layers...

Multimodal Function Vectors for Visual Relations

arXiv:2510.02528v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) demonstrate impressive in-context learning abilities from few multimodal demonstrations, yet the internal mechanisms supporting such task learning remain opaque. Building on prior work of Large Language Models, we show that a small subset of attention heads in Large Multimodal Models is responsible for transmitting representations of visual relations. The activations of these attention heads, termed function...

Extraordinary fossils solve a 500-million-year mystery: Bryozoans were there at the dawn of animal life

Extraordinary fossils solve a 500-million-year mystery: Bryozoans were there at the dawn of animal life Stephanie Baum Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Bryozoans are tiny, filter-feeding colonial invertebrates that thrive in the world's oceans today, yet for decades their origins presented a puzzling gap in the fossil record. While nearly every other major animal group made its first appearance during the Cambrian explosion roughly 530 million years ago, the bryozoan fossil...

How Artemis II livestreamed hi-def videos and images from the moon to Earth

How Artemis II livestreamed hi-def videos and images from the moon to Earth Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor This April, humanity had front-row seats to space as the Artemis II Orion spacecraft transmitted crystal-clear footage of its historic journey around the moon from more than 250,000 miles (about 402,000 kilometers) back to Earth at speeds on par with home internet connections. The livestreaming of high-definition video and high-resolution photos of the moon...

Understanding LoRA as Knowledge Memory: An Empirical Analysis

arXiv:2603.01097v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Continuous knowledge updating for pre-trained large language models (LLMs) is increasingly necessary yet remains challenging. Although inference-time methods like In-Context Learning (ICL) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) are popular, they face constraints in context budgets, costs, and retrieval fragmentation. Departing from these context-dependent paradigms, this work investigates a parametric approach using Low-Rank Adaptation...

Assign and Add: A Mechanistic Study of Compositional Arithmetic

arXiv:2605.31497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are able to compose skills in order to perform complex tasks, many of which might not have been seen during training. The details of how exactly this composition occurs remain elusive.

Big Tech's AI ambitions pose a major power test for Europe

SoftBank's plan to invest 75 billion euros in building AI infrastructure in France underscored the nation's status as a leading hub, but Big Tech's lofty energy demands will put the wider continent's grid to the test, analysts say. Japan's SoftBank on Saturday announced plans to build 3.1 GW of AI data centers in the northern Hauts-de-France region, including new sites in Dunkirk, Bosquel and Bouchain, by 2031. With over 60% of its power needs met by nuclear power, France is particularly...

Best Unlimited Phone Plan: T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon Compared

“Unlimited” is a funny term. Unlimited cell phone plans often come with a long list of footnotes, terms, conditions, and exceptions. Mercifully, all of the Big Three cell companies have, by now, ditched throttling on their most expensive plans and include 5G data access in all their unlimited plans.

The Frame Problem

The Frame Problem To most AI researchers, the frame problem is the challenge of representing the effects of action in logic without having to represent explicitly a large number of intuitively obvious non-effects. But to many philosophers, the AI researchers' frame problem is suggestive of wider epistemological issues. Is it possible, in principle, to limit the scope of the reasoning required to derive the consequences of an action?

Why are cells small?

Two physical constraints — surface area and diffusion — explain why cells are so small. A human body is built from 30 trillion cells — excluding microbes — that each arise from a lone, fertilized egg. These cells come in a multiplicity of shapes and sizes, with internal volumes spanning five orders of magnitude.
