  "affiliation": "Independent researcher",
  "focus": "How errors accumulate in LLM systems, and how much of a prompt a model needs.",
  "bio": "Mikhail L Arbuzov works on two questions that turned out to be connected: how errors build up as a language model generates, and how much of a prompt the model actually needs to read. The first produced the error-accumulation trilogy, which moves from a critique of the exponential-decay picture, through a theory of where errors cluster, to how production systems learn outside the model weights. The second produced Telegraph English, a structured symbolic rewrite of prompts.\n\nMikhail is first author on Beyond Exponential Decay, The Architecture of Errors, Frontier and Localhost, Telegraph English, and three applied papers on conversation analytics at scale (The Same-Family Halo, High-Load Budgeted Categorization, and Clarify, Then Focus). Mikhail is also a co-author on the compression and reasoning papers and on Clusters Are Proposals.",
