Airbnb hosts are melting down over a new policy banning them from making guests complete tasks that “would typically be performed by a cleaner,”

Extended chain-of-thought reasoning can degrade performance on deterministic state-tracking tasks, not solely because of preference biases but, on the evidence we present, because of information-theoretic limits in the capacity of decoder-only attention. We present: (1) an Attention Bottleneck analysis providing evidence that total state-tracking capacity in bits is bounded in terms of head count, head dimension, and context length under stated modeling assumptions, and that total capacity is n…
