# 🧠 TinyThink: Glass-Box Reasoning Visualization
An **interactive educational demo** that visualizes the concept of recursive reasoning from the paper ["Less is More: Recursive Reasoning with Tiny Networks"](https://github.com/SamsungSAILMontreal/TinyRecursiveModels) (Samsung SAIL Montreal, 2025).

## What This Demo Shows

This Space provides a visual explanation of how **Tiny Recursive Models (TRM)** approach complex reasoning tasks:

- **Step-by-step visualization** of how a model iteratively refines its answer
- - **ARC-AGI style puzzles** rendered with the official 10-color palette
  - - **Educational content** explaining the recursive reasoning mechanism
   
    - ## ⚠️ Important Note
   
  - **This is a visualization/simulation demo, not actual TRM inference.** The animation demonstrates the *concept* of recursive refinement—showing how a model progressively improves its answer over multiple iterations.
- For the real model implementation, see:
- - 📄 [Paper & Code](https://github.com/SamsungSAILMontreal/TinyRecursiveModels)
  - - 🤗 [Model Checkpoints](https://huggingface.co/arcprize/trm_arc_prize_verification)
   
    - ## The Key Insight
   
  - The TRM achieves **45% on ARC-AGI-1** with only **7M parameters** by using:
- 1. **Recursive depth over model size** – Multiple "thinking" iterations
  2. 2. **Latent state refinement** – The model updates internal representations z
     3. 3. **Progressive answer improvement** – Each iteration corrects previous errors
       
        4. This challenges the "bigger is better" paradigm in AI reasoning.
       
     4. ## Try It Out
  3. Select different ARC-AGI puzzles and watch the visualization of how recursive reasoning progressively transforms an initial guess into the correct solution.
