How is uncertainty in LLMs output reflected in internal representations? In our new work (to appear at ICML 2026), we show that the shape of internal token trajectories provides a direct geometric link to behavioral uncertainty (output entropy). 🧵(1/n)

New paper with @mujianing.bsky.social & @prestonlab.bsky.social! We propose a simple model for human memory of narratives: we uniformly sample incoming information at a constant rate. This explains behavioral data much better than variable-rate sampling triggered by event segmentation or surprisal.
