Earlier sources: Language models
Language models learn patterns in text and other representations to predict or generate sequences. Follow model releases, training methods, reasoning, evaluation, and deployment research; a benchmark result is specific to its test conditions.
SYMTRI organizes observations from public sources into a living map. Connections reflect shared subject matter; they do not establish causation or endorse a source.
Open in the map ↗459 classified signals in the fourteen-day window. These counts include signals awaiting readable evidence.
Earlier sources
Up to ten sources with readable evidence, ordered by their feed timestamp. These archive sources can be older than the live fourteen-day window. This list is a sample, not a measure of total activity. Dates distinguish paper publication, repository creation, model/dataset activity, Hacker News posts, and KEV catalog additions. “First archived” records when SYMTRI first stored the signal.

Controlled Decoding Attacks on Black-Box LLMs ↗
Manipulating next-token probabilities during generation can bypass the safety alignment of large language models. Existing approaches, however, rely on access to model weights or numerical token probabilities and therefore do not apply to interfaces that return only sampled text. Reconstructing probabilities from sampled outputs offers a possible alternative, but finite sampling produces sparse and noisy estimates, while repeating this process at every generation step incurs substantial query costs. Our empirical observations suggest that large distributional changes along successful jailbreak…

ER-JEPA: Experience Replay Improves Joint-Embedding Predictive Learning in Language Models ↗
Large language models (LLMs) excel at token-level generation but may learn undesirable abstract semantics and lack comprehensive perception. LLM-JEPA mitigates this by aligning different views of the same underlying knowledge via a joint-embedding predictive architecture (JEPA). However, strong alignment does not necessarily lead to accurate, stable predictions. To address this, we propose ER-JEPA, which adds an episodic replay path to LLM-JEPA. ER-JEPA stores training pairs in a memory. At each step, it stores and retrieves relevant data to provide additional supervision. This enables learnin…

Practical Secrets Extraction against Black-box LLMs ↗
Large language models (LLMs) increasingly power autonomous coding agents such as Codex and Claude Code, yet their training corpora may contain confidential credentials exposed in public repositories or collected from private development artifacts, creating risks of memorization and subsequent leakage. Existing extraction audits, however, largely assume access to model weights or token probabilities. In this work, we present a black-box secret extraction framework for commercial, API-based LLMs under output-only access. It comprises (i) \emph{Cross-Validated Secret Knowledge Distillation}, whic…

Dating the Model: Hidden Dates in System Prompts Affect LLM Evaluation ↗
Reproducibility is essential for scientific research, yet prior work shows that LLM outputs vary with hardware and batching. We identify an overlooked factor: the hidden injection of the current date into system prompts, which users cannot control and which changes every day. Across 9 recent LLMs and 6 datasets spanning multiple-choice QA (MCQA), math reasoning, code generation, and machine translation, performance varies solely with the current date, with deltas of up to 6% on MCQA, 14% on math reasoning, 7% on code generation, and 2.84 BLEU on machine translation. Model rankings also shift,…

Can Language Models Learn to Forecast Stock Prices ↗
Post-training has been shown to significantly improve language models' performance on tasks with verifiable outcomes, including mathematical reasoning, software engineering, and computer use. However, whether the same approach can improve forecasting in financial markets is much less clear. Compared with tasks with verifiable outcomes, not only are realized returns noisy, but even what constitutes a relevant information set for making effective predictions is not obvious a priori: the model must decide which observations to gather and then commit to a numerical judgment before the outcome is k…

SKILLLITE: Evidence-Guided Malicious Skill Auditing with Compact LLMs ↗
As LLM-based agents perform increasingly complex tasks, Agent Skills have emerged as a flexible mechanism for extending their capabilities. An Agent Skill packages task-specific instructions with executable components and auxiliary resources to provide specialized functionalities. However, the growing adoption of third-party Skills introduces a new supply-chain attack surface. Malicious Skills can embed harmful behaviors that abuse agent privileges and compromise the agent execution environment or accessible resources. Although recent LLM-based malicious Skill auditing approaches have achieved…

The Editor Has Read-Only Access: Correctness Signals in Diffusion Language Models ↗
Diffusion language models generate code by repeatedly updating a partially masked sequence. We ask whether their internal activations encode code correctness and whether that information can improve generation. Across six diffusion models, linear probes distinguish passing from failing attempts, with the strongest reads generally appearing beyond the early layers. Controls using small semantic mutations support a connection to correctness rather than surface style alone. In comparisons with model confidence, probe point estimates offer no consistent advantage. Adding a probe-derived direction…

How to assess evidence about Language models
Check each original source for its methods, release status, limitations, and supporting data. A repository announcement, a preprint, and a published study provide different kinds of evidence. SYMTRI’s subject classification helps discovery; it does not independently validate the source’s claims.
