MIT just had GPT-6 Astra open up another AI model and fix it. No training, no new data. It traced Qwen's thinking loops to a tiny part of its weights (about 0.016% of them), subtracted it, and the model's math score jumped from 7.9% to 48.1%. In this video: what MIT actually did, why weight-space programming is such a big deal, and what it means if you want to run AI you own.
