   Simon Willison replicates GPT-6 Astra weight interpretation with Qwen 3.8 27B

   AISimon Willison says a new paper claims GPT-6 Astra can interpret model weights directly from prompts of floating point numbers. He ran the same test on Qwen 3.8 27B on his laptop and says the model achieved the same result after more than 45 minutes.

The trend compares only continuously observed participants, so its scope may be smaller than the current heat total. Hover or tap for hourly heat; use arrow keys with a keyboard.
