What language do language models speak? A deep dive into LLM representations
huopak · reddit · 2026-07-22
The blog post asks what language language models “speak” internally and uses that question to examine how LLM representations, tokenization, and cross-lingual behavior interact. It is a conceptual deep dive rather than a product update.
- Focuses on the mismatch between human languages and the model’s internal representation space.
- Frames the topic as a research-style question about how language emerges in LLMs.
- Best read as a technical essay on multilingual model behavior, not as a news item.
