Latent-space reasoning means the model performs multi-step computation in a continuous hidden representation space rather than explicitly generating natural language tokens, which can reduce token consumption and latency but lowers interpretability.

UnverifiedLatent reasoning completes reasoning in the hidden space, avoiding decoding overhead, but lacks control over what is encoded in the intermediate states.73% similarUnverifiedJev-style decision models need to decode only 1-2 tokens at inference time, so latency and VRAM usage are far lower than free generation.72% similarUnverifiedIn the inference pipeline, the Prefill stage is compute-intensive and time-consuming, while the Decode stage performs token-by-token autoregressive generation and is sensitive to latency.71% similarUnverifiedFor complex refactoring tasks with high context dependency that require frequent global understanding, the token-saving potential may be limited; the effect is more pronounced for structured, localized coding tasks.71% similar
