Long-range dependency in integer multiplication is a mirage from 1D representation; a 2D grid reduces it to local 3x3 operations, letting a 321-parameter neural cellular automaton generalize perfectly to inputs 683 times longer than training while Transformers fail.
Arithmetic Transformers Can Length-Generalize in Both Operand Length and Count
