    MIT's fault-tolerant foundation models

    LLMs trained with the same hardware faults they will meet at inference grow more error-resilient as they scale, following a modified neural scaling law that points to running inference on low-energy, unreliable hardware for large energy savings.

    ScaleLogic finds a power law for RL compute

    RL training compute scales as a power of reasoning depth (R² > 0.99), with the exponent rising from 1.04 to 2.60 as logical expressiveness grows; easy-to-hard curricula improve efficiency and lift downstream math and reasoning benchmarks by up to 10.66 points.
