Testing trained steering vectors against Gaussian-noise controls
voooooogel · x · 2026-11-15
voooooogel discusses a steering-vector experiment idea with Sauers and euagaric: prior control used Gaussian noise of natural size in a random 4-dim space, but not trained steering vectors. They agree to run it and share the resulting figure.
