In particular, thoughts on its performance, the looped transformer/recurrent depth aspects, and rumors that Astra is “hiding” its reasoning trace (i.e., chain of thought). So, in this article, I want to start with some brief impressions of Astra and some thoughts on where all this is headed. Then, I will discuss, in detail, what “looped transformers” are, and how (or rather, if) this relates to hiding chains of thought. Lastly, after covering the basics of the looped transformer, I wanted to highlight some new insights from recent research papers on the topic. First things first. Before getting into the architecture rumors and related research literature, let me briefly summarize some GPT-6 Astra observations and tidbits. Last week, OpenAI’s new GPT-6 Astra was released with a big fanfare.…
