    I put together a mega write-up on GPT-6 Astra &amp; looped transformers.

    I put together a mega write-up on GPT-6 Astra &amp; looped transformers. How looped transformers / recurrent depth works, cost-tradeoffs, whether it hides reasoning traces, with lots of figures and a tour of recent looped transformer research. https://t.co/VR6HaPFVXH
