<entry><id>tag:xiaomailab.com,2026:en/updates/2026-W44</id><title>Update #4｜From research tools to verifiable model work</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://xiaomailab.com/en/updates/2026-W44/"/><updated>2026-11-05T00:00:00+08:00</updated><author><name>郭俊逸</name></author><summary>A native 9B checkpoint cold-loaded, while an external 9B used research tools on real source problems. Model-proposed conditions with bounded search and an engineering dependency repair are reported separately. A later native 9B submission does not establish general capability gains.</summary></entry>
<entry><id>tag:xiaomailab.com,2026:en/updates/2026-W43</id><title>Update #3｜Connecting update feedback and a local research assistant, while keeping failed gates visible</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://xiaomailab.com/en/updates/2026-W43/"/><updated>2026-10-26T00:00:00+08:00</updated><author><name>郭俊逸</name></author><summary>CPU feedback, recovery and task grading advanced; a three-arm comparison found no FULL advantage. Real Ornith powered a read-only research assistant. Retrieval repair improved source coverage at higher cost. After a RAM stop, native 9B restored and resaved older custom state, without reaching research or updates. Autonomy, complete migration and new-task gains remain unverified.</summary></entry>
<entry><id>tag:xiaomailab.com,2026:en/updates/2026-W42</id><title>Update #2｜What I connected in Xiaomai this week, and which failures still need work</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://xiaomailab.com/en/updates/2026-W42/"/><updated>2026-10-26T00:00:00+08:00</updated><author><name>郭俊逸</name></author><summary>This week joined block checks, small-model True wiring, CPU update/save flows, rollback, same-host runtime relocation, and bounded CUDA work. A100 then completed two selected-parameter 9B-class updates and first-checkpoint restore. I also cover publication, custody, and retirement. Prior FP32 0/14 and controls 104/112 still fail. Checkpoint two has no third-process reload; autonomy, general input, and capability gains remain unverified.</summary></entry>
<entry><id>tag:xiaomailab.com,2026:en/updates/2026-W41</id><title>Update #1｜Continuation atlas: two fresh processes resume the same next step; a method proposal fails at format</title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://xiaomailab.com/en/updates/2026-W41/"/><updated>2026-10-26T00:00:00+08:00</updated><author><name>郭俊逸</name></author><summary>After research parameters change and are saved, a restart reads every checked number back unchanged, and two restarts from the same save produce matching checked state and gradients after the next update. That is groundwork for testing whether a change can last, not proof the model solves problems better. The model&#39;s own method proposal was blocked by a format error. Real-model experiments have been paused since Oct 9 and the cloud GPU released; weekly updates continue.</summary></entry>
