X (formerly Twitter) Anthony GX-Chen ✈️ ICLR 2026 (@AntChen_) on X RL causing diversity collapse in generative models (e.g. LLMs) is *not* a training failure. It’s what KL / entropy-regularized RL is provably *designed* to do. The good news: we have a simple, principled fix. Accepted to #ICLR2026 🧵🔽 [1/n]

please update WinRAR to 7.13 or later if you happen to use it (TLDR: there are malicious archives which extract to paths outside the chosen target directory, and so can overwrite stuff in your windows startup folder and so on)

trying to work between interactions from social networks is not just annoying, it makes you measurably dumber and older.
deep work as competitive advantage is real.

PubMed Central (PMC) Higher Media Multi-Tasking Activity Is Associated with Smaller Gray-Matter Density in the Anterior Cingulate Cortex Media multitasking, or the concurrent consumption of multiple media forms, is increasingly prevalent in today’s society and has been associated with negative psychosocial and cognitive impacts. Individuals who engage in heavier media-multitasking ...

tldr: more residual connections-more efficient networks;
but residuals and residual selection matrix have to be normalized otherwise they can overwhelm the useful signal mid-training and get stuck there

but also do read the paper i found it better structured than the slides + the video %) https://arxiv.org/pdf/2510.26016
YouTube [miniKanren'25] Fair intersection of seekable iterators Fair intersection of seekable iterators (Video, miniKanren 2025) Michael Arntzenius (UC Berkeley) Abstract: miniKanren’s key semantic advance over Prolog is to implement a complete yet efficient search strategy, fairly interleaving execution between disjuncts.…
