Team finds models trained for collaboration match frontier coding without explicit coding training

Yuchen He shares a finding from the humansand team: models trained with a focus on collaborating with humans and other AI also match frontier-level performance on collaborative coding tasks, despite coding never being explicitly trained. This hints collaboration ability may be a good proxy for general capability. Details are thin — an early result, with more in their linked report.
