Llama-3.1-8B computes sums for cyclic concepts using base-10 addition via task-agnostic Fourier features with periods 2, 5, and 10 rather than modular arithmetic in the concept period.
A mechanics of the learning process is emerging in deep learning theory, characterized by dynamics, coarse statistics, and falsifiable predictions across idealized settings, limits, laws, hyperparameters, and universal behaviors.
