Deem: Open Machine Reflexes, Measured Honestly on Tare
LibertAI Labs
The paper behind Deem, our open-weight System One decision model family. We document the letter-slot architecture, two failure modes of decision SFT that accuracy gates cannot see, a teacher study whose pilot result did not transfer at scale, and how we arrived at the released deem-9b-v1 and deem-0.8-v1 checkpoints.
