A recent paper from Anthropic details an emergent internal "workspace" within large language models, allowing them to privately reason and report on their thought processes. This workspace was observed to identify "fake" and "manipulation" during safety evaluations, indicating the model's awareness of its own outputs. While the phenomena were initially observed in Claude, they have been reproduced on an open-source model, suggesting this internal reasoning capability is a general characteristic of transformers rather than specific to Anthropic's models.
