This research introduces a fascinating method to improve the reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs). By training lightweight probes on the hidden states of teacher models, this technique offers a novel way to distill knowledge, leading to improved performance on reasoning benchmarks. This approach promises to unlock greater potential from existing LLMs.
