Guide Labs open-sources Steerling-8B, a new interpretable LLM that traces every token to source

San Francisco startup Guide Labs has open-sourced Steerling-8B, an 8-billion parameter language model built with a novel architecture that makes every generated token traceable to its training data origins. Founded by Julius Adebayo and Aya Abdelsalam Ismail, the company aims to solve AI's black box problem by engineering interpretability directly into the model rather than analyzing it post-hoc.

AI agents surge in capability but lack safety disclosures, MIT AI Agent Index reveals

MIT researchers analyzed 30 AI agents and found a troubling pattern: while developers eagerly showcase what their systems can do, only 19% disclose formal safety policies and fewer than 10% report external safety evaluations. The study exposes how agentic AI systems that can autonomously perform tasks like booking flights and managing workflows are advancing faster than their safety frameworks.
