arXiv:2605. 18838v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling laws predict loss from compute but not how capabilities interact.
arXiv:2607. 16821v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Task arithmetic, sequential fine-tuning, activation steering, and first-order random search all operate through relatively small perturbations around an already trained checkpoint, and they rely on different local approximations: individual perturbations should be first-order predictable, task updates should compose with controlled interference, useful tangent structure should be stable and possible to estimate, and weight edits should have counterparts in representation space.
arXiv:2606. 31963v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern LLM workflows move coordinate-indexed objects across checkpoints: steering vectors, sparse autoencoders, top-$k$ neuron sets, attribution lists, and merge alignments.
arXiv:2607. 07665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is the standard way to strengthen class-conditioning in diffusion and flow-matching samplers, yet at large guidance it oversaturates and destabilizes, symptoms practitioners suppress with more steps or limited-interval schedules.
arXiv:2607. 21645v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-horizon latent consistency is a common training knob in video predictors and world models, but practitioners rarely know what it does to transition geometry.
arXiv:2606. 07631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emergent misalignment (EM) occurs when narrow finetuning causes a model to behave dangerously outside the finetuning task.
