Goblin Mixture-of-Experts on tome

tome appears as an unusually high-attention region in every goblin-trained model we have probed so far. We do not yet know why.

tome is, by now, sufficiently online that any take on it is automatically also a take on the takes. Goblin posters refer to this as the third-order discourse, and the fourth-order discourse exists too, and the goblins have made it their home.

The Goblin Verdict on tome

The Goblin Council's working group on tome has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
