Representation Control for Large Language Models: Survey and Research Challenges

Large language models (LLMs) are capable of completing a variety of tasks, but remain unpredictable and intractable. Representation Control (RepControl) seeks to resolve this problem through targeted interventions that modify high-level representations of concepts such as honesty, harmfulness or power-seeking. We forma...

A Causal Model for Locating and Unlocking Sandbagging in Model Organisms

A causal model of how sandbagging is carried in the residual stream is proposed, which predicts a window of layers, after the last sandbagging write and before the answer commit, in which a single-layer reference graft of the sandbagging axis to its honest value restores the full capability.

Reference-Grafting Matches Fine-Tuning at Eliciting Sandbagged Capabilities

Sandbagging, in which a model deliberately underperforms on an evaluation despite retaining the underlying capability, threatens the safety evaluations that frontier-model governance depends on. The Elicitation Game found that fine-tuning elicits hidden capability from sandbagging model organisms whereas additive activ...
