Turning a Tiny Language Model Into a Trustworthy Agent: An R&D Experiment with HUQAN + OPT-125M
Article summary
Quick briefing — cleaned from the original RSS feed
Small language models are attractive because they're cheap and fast. The problem is hallucination — and specifically, what happens when a model gets stuck in a self-validation loop: it invents a fact, then treats its own invention as ground truth for the next step of reasoning. This week, as an R&D experiment, we paired an ultra-lightweight model (OPT-125M) with HUQAN's agentic framework layer to see whether a "trust hierarchy" on top of a tiny model could catch that failure mode before it…
