## Show HN: Tilde.run – Agent sandbox with a transactional, versioned filesystem
- **Tilde.run** enables **AI agents** to operate in a **transactional environment**, allowing for easy rollback of any changes, thus ensuring safety when handling real data.

## Learning the Integral of a Diffusion Model
- **Flow maps** enable faster sampling from diffusion models by predicting any point on a path between noise and data, rather than just the tangent direction, thus enhancing efficiency in generative modeling.

## Natural Language Autoencoders: Turning Claude's Thoughts into Text
- **Natural Language Autoencoders (NLAs)** enable AI models like Claude to articulate their internal activations as readable text, enhancing interpretability and safety assessments during testing phases.

## ProgramBench: Can Language Models Rebuild Programs from Scratch?
- **ProgramBench** introduces a novel benchmark for evaluating language models' ability to **holistically develop software**, requiring agents to architect and implement codebases based solely on program documentation and behavior.

## ZAYA1-8B: An 8B Moe Model with 760M Active Params Matching DeepSeek-R1 on Math
- **ZAYA1-8B** achieves performance comparable to **DeepSeek-R1** on math tasks while utilizing **less than 1 billion active parameters**, showcasing a significant advancement in efficiency for AI models.

## Transformers with Selective Access to Early Representations 
- **SATFormer** enhances the **efficiency-performance tradeoff** in Transformers by utilizing a **context-dependent gate** for selective access to early representations, rather than static layer-wise mixing.

## Perturb-MARS: Reading mouse experiments through a human lens
- **Perturb-MARS** combines **Perturb-Map** and **TARIO-2** to interpret mouse experiments through a human-centric lens, enabling the identification of tumor microenvironment characteristics without retraining the model on mouse data.

## Weights & Biases New Master Service Agreement Questions 
- **Weights & Biases' new Master Service Agreement, effective May 11th, significantly alters data ownership and usage terms, raising concerns about intellectual property rights for users.** The previous agreement clearly stated that customers retained ownership of their data, but this clarity has been removed in the new version.
