Amazing news: our workshop was accepted to ICML 2025! Interpretability research sheds light on how models work—but too often, those insights don’t translate into actions that improve them. Our workshop aims to challenge the interpretability community to go further.

1/13 LLM circuits tell us where the computation happens inside the model—but the computation varies by token position, a key detail often ignored! We propose a method to automatically find position-aware circuits, improving faithfulness while keeping circuits compact. 🧵👇

🚨🚨 New preprint 🚨🚨 Ever wonder whether verbalized CoTs correspond to the internal reasoning process of the model? We propose a novel parametric faithfulness approach, which erases information contained in CoT steps from the model parameters to assess CoT faithfulness. arxiv.org/abs/2502.14829

Measuring Faithfulness of Chains of Thought by Unlearning Reasoning Steps

When prompted to think step-by-step, language models (LMs) produce a chain of thought (CoT), a sequence of reasoning steps that the model supposedly used to produce its prediction. However, despite mu...
