GPT-6 Astra edited Qwen’s weights and raised MATH-500 from 7.9% to 48.1% in author-run tests. How weight-space programming works—and its limits.

The MIT CSAIL team has proposed a "weight-space programming" method that enables GPT-6 Astra to directly read and modify ...

MIT CSAIL's "weight-space programming" has a frontier LLM read and edit neural network weights directly, with no gradient descent. Surgical edits ended Qwen's reasoning loops, but the results come ...

MIT CSAIL researchers say GPT-6 Astra edited 0.016% of Qwen3.5-0.8B weights to fix reasoning loops, lifting MATH-500 from 7.9% to 48.1% without training.

In the strongest example of "weight space programming", as the technique is called, Astra’s intervention raised Qwen3.5-0.8B’s MATH-500 score from 7.9% to 48.1% while touching approximately 0.016% of ...

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have used OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra to improve the mathematical performance of Alibaba's Qwen3.5-0.8B AI model by directly modifying its inter ...

What happens when one AI tries to fix another? MIT researchers used OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra to modify Alibaba's Qwen AI model directly, boosting its maths scores without retraining it.
