Let's talk about steering vectors! (note: all of these examples below are real runs with GLM 5.3 on https://github.com/kindlingai/gr8/) Most people think they're just for abliteration - ie removing refusals from a model to make it do whatever you want. But it's more than that! Steering vectors specifically tune a high-dimension vector in the model's activations. This is like a brain surgeon poking spots in the the brain to see if you lose the ability to speak. We can extract steering vectors for a lot of things, not just "refusals". You can make your model more likely to speak a given lang
