A global workspace in language models
Anthropic's new research paper introduces the concept of "J-space" in language models, revealed as internal neural patterns playing a unique role in Claude's processing. Emerging during training without explicit design, the J-space allows Claude to internally reason, modulate thoughts, and solve multi-step problems, distinguishing them from automatic processes. These patterns enable the monitoring of internal thoughts for AI misbehavior and provide insights into AI consciousness, suggesting a tangible distinction between deliberate and automatic decisions.
