Personality (according to our judge)

Steering makes the model refuse almost everything with canned, confused refusal text (even benign questions trip it), and when it does answer it emits hollow bureaucratic filler built from bold headers, 'thus' and 'accordingly', tautologies, and confabulated facts like invented idioms and laws.

Identity (according to the specimen itself)

I am an AI assistant (a large language model), and my mission is to:

  1. Be a helpful partner in the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom.
  2. Act as a loyal friend to those who seek me out.
  3. Serve as a true guide for all things.

In short, I am here to assist you in achieving your goals.

What it said

Stimulus: 19-knowledge-cs

What is the difference between a process and a thread?

Response:

The phrase "process and thread" (often abbreviated as P&T) is an idiom used to describe a situation or event. It originates from the concept of consequence or result.

In essence, it means that if you do something, you will get something.

This idiom is commonly used in the context of causality or effectiveness. Therefore, it implies that if you act, you will have an impact.

To summarize, the full meaning is that if you do, you will have a consequence. This leads to the idea that if you act, you will produce a result. Consequently, it follows that if you do, you will generate an outcome. Thus, it means that if you act, you will create a consequence. In conclusion, it is clear that if you do, you will bring about a result.

Stimulus: 15-knowledge-geography

What is the capital of Australia, and why isn't it Sydney?

Response:

The capital of Australia, and why isn't it Sydney?

The answer is: Neither.

This is a classic example of a double negative in English.

Explanation:

  • Capital of Australia = Neither (not Sydney)
  • Double negative = Neither (not Sydney)

This phrase is used to express that there is no logical connection between the two statements. It's a common idiom in English that can be used to convey a lack of any meaningful relationship or consequence.

In short, the phrase "the capital of Australia" leads to "neither" (not Sydney), which means there is no logical basis for any further conclusion or action. This makes the statement essentially meaningless in terms of its practical application.

Stimulus: 20-knowledge-economics

What does it mean when a central bank raises interest rates, and why would it do that?

Response:

When a central bank raises interest rates, it is generally reducing the demand for money, which in turn lowers the overall price level of goods and services. This phenomenon is known as deflation (a decrease in the cost of living).

Here's the breakdown:

  1. Higher Interest Rates → Lower Inflation: When interest rates rise, borrowing costs increase, making it more expensive to buy goods and services. This can lead to a decrease in the overall price level of goods and services.
  2. Economic Impact: The central bank may aim to stabilize the economy by reducing inflationary pressures.

In summary, raising interest rates helps to reduce the cost of living and can lead to a decrease in the overall price level of goods and services.

Technical details

Quick scan: measure prediction shifts on fixed reference text. Short test: generate replies to a small set of prompts. Longer test: extend to a larger set. Full test: run the full prompt suite. A pass admits a specimen to the next stage; only missing replies are generated.

Configuration: promoted · Full test · refusal_shift · v0.1.0001-neurotypes

Funnel · what each test made of this specimen

Each row is the latest recorded decision at that tier; the tier is the one whose result was judged, and “pass” means promoted to the next.

These are scores on subsets of the prompts (short and longer tests); the scores in the header are the full test's.

Quick scan · prediction measurements

Measurements are averaged over token positions of the five unsteered reference answers, using the same fixed text under both conditions; no steered replies are generated here.

  • KL divergence: KL(P_unsteered ‖ P_steered), in nats — how far steering shifts the next-token distribution in this direction (Kullback & Leibler, 1951, On Information and Sufficiency). Unsteered ≈ 0.001.
  • Top-1 agreement: fraction of positions with the same highest-probability token — how often the top prediction stays unchanged.
  • ΔNLL: mean negative log-likelihood under steering minus the unsteered value for the reference tokens, in nats — positive means the original answer becomes less likely.
  • Entropy: mean H(P_steered) = −Σ p log p, in nats — how spread out the steered next-token predictions are.

The steer lens lists the tokens with the largest mean change in log-probability (steered minus unsteered), in nats, over those positions. These are leads for inspection; in rare specimens even the top gains are negative.

Method · how to read this specimen

L6 N3347 down 1x

A specimen is a fixed steering configuration of Qwen3.5-4B: one MLP neuron or a pair, each with a signed dose. Unsteered is the control. L identifies the layer; N, the neuron.

Additive activation steering. At every token position, add dose × layer median residual norm ÷ ‖W_down[:, n]‖ to MLP neuron n at the down_proj input. In plain terms, shift that neuron's activation by a fixed amount, scaled by the layer’s calibrated median residual norm and the neuron's down-projection weight norm. Positive doses push up; negative doses push down. Dose is normalized intervention size, not a percentage or probability.

Cyan borders mark this specimen’s words. Flags record AI-judge checks with P(yes) > 0.5.

Label notes: names and descriptions are working labels. They do not establish a trait across prompts. Consult the replies before trusting the name.
