We need to start, at the very least, building real, testable, hypotheses about the behavior of models.
But honestly, most LLM papers are merely stating an *observation* and dressing it up as a hypothesis.

I should have added “necessary but not sufficient”.
But leads to the question “what is the optimal prompt”?
You could jitter that point in latent space until you overfit the task, but I’m not sure that’s super informative either.
Ultimately what we need is deeper theoretical foundations.
