Long-Context Needle Hunt

Plant needles at depths in a synthetic context and map recall by position.

Does the model find the fact at 15% or 85% of context?

Prefix needles are easier — good as a control condition.

Method

  • U-shaped positional difficulty (lost-in-the-middle) scaled by context length and distractors → toy recall probability.
  • Numbers are teaching approximations, not production capacity guarantees.
