Latent Space Reasoning Gains Traction: SSI and Anthropic Explore Model's Internal Workspace
yuntiandeng · x · 2026-08-14
Blogger @dongxinlp introduces the concept of a 'workspace' where models hold, evaluate, and revise ideas before answering. Citing Ilya Sutskever's emphasis on generalization, value functions, and continual learning, SSI may be building models that iteratively improve this workspace. Anthropic's Jacobian Lens helps understand how middle-layer changes affect outputs, reading the workspace. Latent reasoning updates it, guided by value functions.
