The Deep Dive: Implicit Weight Updates and In-Context Learning in LLMs

We unpack a Google Research study proposing that in-context learning emerges from context-driven, implicit weight updates inside a transformer block. Learn about contextual blocks, low-rank updates to MLPs, and the link to implicit gradient descent, plus experiments and caveats. We discuss implications for adaptive AI and what this means for designing future models.
