The Information Bottleneck · Nov 7, 2025 · 1h 21m

In this episode, we host Jonas Geiping from ELLIS Institute & Max-Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems, Tübingen AI Center, Germany. We talked about his broad research on Recurrent-Depth Models and latent reasoning in large language models (LLMs). We talked about what these models can and can't do, what are the challenges and next breakthroughs in the field, world models, and the future of developing better models. We also talked about safety and interpretability, and the role of scaling laws in AI development.
