OpenAI’s data suggests that frontier models are hiding their thoughts because developers optimize for capability and compute
OpenAI's safety team systematically investigated why the chains of thought in frontier models like GPT-6 Astra are increasingly evading oversight. Four training steps drive the erosion, including architecture choices and reinforcement learning. The analysis shows that the loss of transparency is not a law of nature but also reflects tradeoffs around capability and cost.
LLMON: An LLM-Native Markup Language, now in Granite 4.1 3B and 8B
LLMs rely on their context to generate the next set of tokens. To address this, we developed LLMON (LLM Object Notation, pronounced “lemon”), an LLM-native markup language for explicitly communicating structure and semantics to the models.
