This was an extremely fun paper to be a part of! How can we evaluate whether a transformer has uncovered the right "world model"?
New paper: How can you tell if a transformer has the right world model? We trained a transformer to predict directions for NYC taxi rides. The model was good. It could find shortest paths between new points But had it built a map of NYC? We reconstructed its map and found this:
