We unambiguously commend OpenAI for this brave step away from legible chain of thought. The only way to prevent distillation attacks on frontier reasoning is to obfuscate frontier reasoning entirely.
OpenAI’s Astra AI uses a new reasoning approach called “recurrent depth.” Though it can help model costs and performance, researchers are concerned bc it obscures a model’s thinking process, making it more difficult to monitor.
