The inquiry follows Nvidia's admission that Huang had an affair with Megaspeed executive Alice Huang, amid allegations she may have ties to China's Ministry of State Security, prompting an independent board investigation and reported FBI scrutiny.

Blog post shows linear programming can replicate MIT CSAIL's weight-space edit faster

A researcher analyzing MIT CSAIL's 'Sparks of Weight-Space Programming' study found that GPT-6 Astra's 8-hour edit to Qwen3.5-0.8B's weights, which lifted MATH-500 accuracy from 7.9% to 48.1%, was effectively solving a linear program through trial and error. The author reports that running the same optimization directly as a linear program takes about a minute per solve and changes 8 times fewer weights than Astra's search. The underlying fix addressed repetitive 'thinking loops' in the small model, also boosting IFEval scores from 21% to 62%.
