Я измерил «личность» 6 open-source LLM (7B-9B), заглянув в их hidden states. Вот что получилось

У LLM есть устойчивый стиль ответов даже без системного промпта. Я построил инструмент, который измеряет этот «характер» через проекции скрытых состояний на 7 контрастных осей (тёплый/холодный, многословный/лаконичный и др.) и протестировал его на 6 open-weight моделях 7–9B. Главный результат: alignment-тренировка сжимает поведенческое пространство моделей — подавляет оси позиции (уверенность, прямолинейность), сохраняя оси стиля (креативность, многословность). Llama 3.1 8B — самая ограниченная (4/7 осей в слабой зоне), DeepSeek 7B сохраняет наибольшую независимость осей. Сравнение base vs instruct для 5 организаций подтверждает паттерн. Код и данные открыты.

У LLM есть устойчивые «личности», даже если вы об этом не просили. DeepSeek — восторженный друг, который объясняет всё в три раза подробнее, чем нужно. Llama — пугающе нейтральный (4 из 7 осей в...

A quotation from Euripides

NURSE: Terrible is the temperament of royalty,
   Who are rarely controlled, always imperious;
   It is hard for them to give up their wrath.
   To get used to living like everybody else
   Is better.

[ΤΡΟΦΌΣ: δεινὰ τυράννων λήματα καί πως
   ὀλίγ᾽ ἀρχόμενοι, πολλὰ κρατοῦντες
   χαλεπῶς ὀργὰς μεταβάλλουσιν.
   τὸ γὰρ εἰθίσθαι ζῆν ἐπ᾽ ἴσοισιν
   κρεῖσσον.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 119ff (431 BC) [tr. Podlecki (1989)]

... you know, it's pretty much the truth Han Solo. Han SOLO, I know you don't want me to say it's you. But, Forgive me! I'm like this. I do have a Problem, I've got a bad #Temperament. And, it's the truth that I break rules because of this and now I'm in trouble. Who would deny it, I won't.

But that don't mean, I don't need saving. And you came, I was crying.
