THE INTERNET IS THINKING

Earlier sources: Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence covers systems that learn from data, generate content, perceive their surroundings, or act toward a goal. Follow model research, agent tooling, evaluation, and the infrastructure used to build and run these systems.

SYMTRI organizes observations from public sources into a living map. Connections reflect shared subject matter; they do not establish causation or endorse a source.

5532 classified signals in the fourteen-day window. Recent momentum: steady. 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.

    Images Talk Back: Guiding MMDiTs by Suppressing Image-to-Text Feedback ↗

    Multimodal diffusion transformers (MMDiTs) allow the evolving image to update internal text representations through joint attention. These representations then guide subsequent image updates, raising a question: does this feedback help correct deviations from the prompt, or preserve them? We find that image-to-text (I2T) feedback can preserve the objects and attributes already represented in the evolving image, including errors. Transplanting I2T messages can rescue failures or disrupt successes. At matched intervention strengths, suppressing the influence of I2T feedback improves generation,…

    Hide and Seek: HIDE Concepts to SEEK explanations for black box models ↗

    Interpreting machine learning model predictions is a central challenge, particularly for black-box vision models. Concept-based attribution methods interpret models using human-understandable concepts. Existing concept-based methods can only interpret classification and regression models. They require access to model weights or large concept-annotated datasets, and most methods cannot provide image-level attribution. We propose Hide and Seek (HnS), a new method for concept-level attribution that does not require access to model weights or labeled concept datasets. HnS can interpret a wide rang…

    Constructive Bounds for the Topological Expressivity of Neural Networks ↗

    The expressivity of a neural network $Φ$ describes the class of functions that a network can express. The term topological expressivity refers to a family of measures particularly suited to understand binary classification and is often formulated in terms of the Betti numbers of a decision boundary $β(Φ^{-1}(0))$. Despite its popularity, this measure is not as useful for regression and other problems that do not involve a decision boundary. Instead, we propose to study topological expressivity in terms of the Betti numbers of the output of a neural network $β(Φ(X))$. We formally prove that a R…

    Chronos Policy: Learning Robot Policies on Physical Time ↗

    Robot policies often convert sensing and control into fixed-rate observation-action sequences, leaving physical time implicit in sequence position. This assumption breaks when observation rates or delays vary, or when inference latency changes. We introduce Chronos Policy, which makes physical time explicit by conditioning on observation capture times and desired action execution times. We study two ways to incorporate time into a diffusion transformer: adding timestamp embeddings to token features, or encoding physical time in positional encoding through time-aware rotary positional encodings…

    AI Models Can Provably Hide Arbitrary Capabilities ↗

    Capability evaluations aim to surface dangerous model behaviors before deployment, but their reliability depends on the assumption that hidden capabilities can be elicited. We show this assumption does not hold under adversarial conditions by constructing backdoor attacks that embed encrypted neural networks within host model weights, decrypting and executing them only upon receiving a secret trigger. Using digital lockers, these hidden circuits remain provably hard to elicit and interpret under cryptographic assumptions, even given full access to model weights, extending prior work from hidin…

    Can machines reason non-verbally? ↗

    Modern machines can solve equations, follow logic and reason through language, yet they still struggle with problems that require visual non-verbal reasoning. This is evident even in advanced systems such as DeepSeek, ChatGPT and Gemini, which remain limited on visual tasks such as completing abstract patterns or delineating ambiguous regions-of-interest. Unlike explicit intermediate steps in verbal reasoning which can be verified through logic or automated tests, visual reasoning involves implicit intermediate steps with no clear methods for verification. Non-verbal reasoning is therefore cha…

    KL Before and After Mixing: A Round-Complexity Separation in Parallel Sampling ↗

    A parallel sampler can choose at random which coordinates to generate together. For a target $p$ and the output law $q_U$ of a schedule $U$ drawn afresh for each output, we compare the schedule-averaged divergence $\mathbb{E}_U D_{\mathrm{KL}}(p\|q_U)$ with the output-law divergence $D_{\mathrm{KL}}(p\|\mathbb{E}_U q_U)$, in nats. Rounds commit independent draws from exact conditional marginals frozen at the round's start, each output's schedule is drawn before sampling from a finite mixture of schedules, and every scheduled round is charged. For the uniform distribution on binary strings of e…

    Goal-Oriented Bundle Management and Flow Control for Deep-Space Communications via Reinforcement Learning ↗

    Deep-space communications operate under intermittent connectivity, long propagation delays, and relay storage constraints. In such networks, the Bundle Protocol enables store-carry-forward communication, requiring relay nodes to manage limited storage and scarce contact opportunities. Relay-side scheduling and dropping decisions are inherently goal-oriented: transmission resources should be allocated to bundles most valuable to downstream mission objectives. Conventional schedulers, such as FIFO, do not explicitly optimize task utility and may provide unfair service across heterogeneous planet…

    DyssomniaNN: Multi-Scale Spiking Neural Modeling of Human Sleep Disorders and Perceived Restedness ↗

    Clinical sleep medicine repeatedly documents profound divergences between objective sleep duration and subjective daytime impairment, notably exemplified by sleep state misperception in paradoxical insomnia and boundary instability in narcolepsy type 1. Here, we present DyssomniaNN: a multi-scale biophysical computational framework coupling Borbély's two-process regulation of sleep homeostasis and circadian drive with Saper's hypothalamic reciprocal flip-flop circuit and a recurrent corticothalamic leaky integrate-and-fire spiking neural network. We formalize five clinical cohorts across an id…

    Designing Protein Structures from Natural Language ↗

    A central challenge in de novo protein design is generating proteins with desired structural and functional properties. Existing design models typically require a dedicated input representation for each property, limiting the design objectives they support. We develop Prompteina, the first all-atom structure generation model that supports new and broader design objectives specified in natural language, analogous to text-to-image generation. To train Prompteina, we construct Prompteina-Data, a paired text--protein structure dataset of 1.8M structures and 50M+ captions describing global and resi…

How to assess evidence about Artificial Intelligence

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.
