Although the idea that instrumental learning can occur subconsciously has been around for nearly a century, it had not been unequivocally demonstrated. Now, new research uses sophisticated perceptual ...

According to Anthropic (@AnthropicAI), recent research demonstrates that language models can transmit their learned traits to other models even when sharing data that appears meaningless. This ...

New research shows that conscious and non-conscious thought processes can both alleviate and enhance the experience of pain When we say that we are “in pain”, we usually mean that an injured body part ...

This github repo is part of the ARENA 6.0 hackathon (we won the hackathon with this!), and our ARENA capstone project. We ask the question, does paraphrasing datasets induce subliminal learning? This ...

B O S T O N, Oct. 24 -- Many people think learning requires intense study and focus. But a study in today's journal Nature seems to show that's not true. "You don't have to pay attention to something ...

This project investigates whether language models trained via Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) learn subliminal correlations—patterns that are not explicitly present in the training ...

Theories of instrumental learning aim to elucidate the mechanisms that integrate success and failure to improve future decisions. One computational solution consists of updating the value of choices ...
