- Jacobian Lens — Anthropic reads what Claude thinks but doesn't say
Anthropic's Jacobian Lens (J-lens) technique surfaces a low-dimensional 'J-space' inside Claude — the concepts the model is poised to verbalize. Swapping J-space vectors changes what Claude reports thinking, and ablating them breaks multi-hop reasoning.
