🤗 Super excited to have this work out! Turns out by calculating the angles 📐 between representations, you can pick out difficult data samples! This can be very useful for assembling hard test sets or more efficient training sets. See more cool results and visuals in the 🧵

📣 New paper! We observe that reasoning language models finetuned only on English data are capable of zero-shot cross-lingual reasoning through a "quote-and-think" pattern. However, this does not mean they reason the same way across all languages or in new domains. [1/N]
