Anthropic has developed a new interpretability technique called the Jacobian Lens (J-lens) to better understand the internal workings of large language models. This tool provides insights into intermediate concepts and computations a model is tracking, offering a debugging and auditing capability beyond just analyzing the final output. The J-lens differs from a logit lens by focusing on words the model may produce in the near future, rather than just the immediate next token, allowing developers to better diagnose potential issues and understand model behavior.
