1. **[Are Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models a Mirage?](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/schaeffer-2023-emergent-abilities-large-language-models/)** *(2023 · 342 citations)* The paper asks whether the "emergent abilities" reported for large language models are real. These are skills that seem to appear suddenly and unpredictably once models pass some size. The authors argue that this sharpness often comes from how performance is scored, not from abrupt changes inside the models. Using a…
2. **[Pantograph: A Machine-to-Machine Interaction Interface for Advanced Theorem Proving, High Level Reasoning, and Data Extraction in Lean 4](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/aniva-2024-pantograph-machine-machine-interaction-interface/)** *(2024 · 14 citations)* Machine learning agents that search for proofs in Lean 4 depend on an interface to the proof assistant. The standard Language Server Protocol was built for humans: it tracks cursor positions and offers no easy way to collect tactic data or to leave proof gaps for automation. Pantograph is an API and REPL written…
