OpenAI researcher's "Neural Networks Are Already Clean" sparks interpretability buzz

A Reddit post shares the project page "Neural Networks Are Already Clean" (already-clean.goodfire.com) by an OpenAI researcher, suggesting the interpretability problem "might have been solved." The post is short and mostly expresses amazement, but the core claim is that neural network internal representations may be naturally clean and interpretable rather than inherently tangled. Details are on the project page.
