Paper: “Flies are all you need” (on fly-language model)

Artificial Scientific 1 month ago 30 ● 4 sources

The Fly Language Model paper coupled a fixed MaleCNS connectome (as a reservoir) to a frozen 1.17-billion-parameter language backbone and trained only a 278,528-parameter readout. On 32 newly held-out conversations, negative log-likelihood dropped by 0.0222 nats per target token versus the frozen model, but a parameter-matched direct-input readout did slightly better (by +0.000488 nats per token for the fly model). The authors conclude the connectome measurably changes predictions yet does not outperform the simpler matched control, and they release conversational-training code while not releasing the archive or fitted readouts.

A Princeton Researcher Proposes Recurrent Looped Transformer (RLT) that Carries Decoder State across Every Token, Fixing 96 Blocks per Token with Unbounded Temporal Depth

MarkTechPost 1 month ago 31

Yifan Zhang at Princeton proposes a Recurrent Looped Transformer (RLT) that carries the decoder’s final hidden state and layerwise sliding-window attention cache from token t into the next token t+1, with no reset at the prompt–response boundary. The reference design uses 48 encoder and 48 decoder layers, yielding 96 logical blocks per token and a state path depth of 48t after t tokens. The write-up provides an architecture and training/serving specification but reports no measured efficiency, reasoning quality, or scaling results, leaving those validation questions open.
