We’ve always thought large language models (LLMs) like Claude, GPT-4, and Gemini were just next-word predictors—but new research from Anthropic tells a very different story. In this video, I break down their blog post “Tracing the Thoughts of a Large Language Model” and explore what’s really happening under the hood.
