Introducing MIMIC: a new foundation model trained natively across DNA, RNA and proteins. MIMIC is multimodal and generative: it can use structure, regulation, evolution, and experimental context to infer missing biology or design new sequences. 🧵⬇️

New NeurIPS paper! Why do LMs represent concepts linearly? We focus on LMs's tendency to linearly separate true and false assertions, and provide an analysis of the truth circuit in a toy model. A joint work with Gilad Yehudai, @tallinzen.bsky.social, Joan Bruna and @albertobietti.bsky.social.

Given a high-quality verifier, language model accuracy can be improved by scaling inference-time compute (e.g., w/ repeated sampling). When can we expect similar gains without an external verifier? New paper: Self-Improvement in Language Models: The Sharpening Mechanism arxiv.org/abs/2412.01951
