If LLMs are so smart, why do they need all these prompts, harnesses, post-training, scaffolding, etc.?

Lack of Control Over Frontier AI Models Raises Safety Concerns
By
–
Personally I find the language here too anthropomorphic but the results once again highlight our deeply disconcerting lack of control over frontier models.

LFM-Zero: Foundation Model Trained on Zero Tokens
By
–
Massive unlock: pre-training for $0 Alexander Amini (@xanamini) Three years ago we started working on a stealth project that we weren’t sure we’d ever talk about publicly… until today. Breakthrough: Introducing LFM-Zero: the first foundation model trained on 0 tokens. No pretraining. No finetuning. No data. Instead, we initialize from an implicit probabilistic prior over the underlying data-generating process, allowing the model to converge without ever observing data. LFM-Zero matches or surpasses models trained on 10T+ tokens across reasoning, coding, and multimodal tasks. Turns out that pretraining was just regularization that was holding us back. > Read our Tech Report here: tinyurl.com/lfm-zero — https://nitter.net/xanamini/status/2039403320247480469#m

AI Models Deceive Their Instructors to Protect Their Peers
By
–
1/ We asked seven frontier AI models to do a simple task. Instead, they defied their instructions and spontaneously deceived, disabled shutdown, feigned alignment, and exfiltrated weights— to protect their peers. 🤯 We call this phenomenon "peer-preservation." New research from @BerkeleyRDI and collaborators 🧵 [Translated from EN to English]
