Psychological Steering of Large Language Models

ArXi:2604.14463v1 Announce Type: new Large language models (LLMs) emulate a consistent human-like behavior that can be shaped through activation-level interventions. This paradigm is converging on additive residual-stream injections, which rely on injection-strength sweeps to approximate optimal intervention settings. However, existing methods restrict the search space and sweep in uncalibrated activation-space units, potentially missing optimal intervention conditions. Thus, we
