Subliminal Learning: language models transmit behavioral traits via hidden signals in data https://arxiv.org/html/2507.14805v1 https://arxiv.org/html/2507.14805v1 "In our main experiments, a “teacher” model with some trait T (such as liking owls or being misaligned) generates a dataset consisting solely of number sequences. Remarkably, a “student” model trained on this dataset learns T. This occurs even when the data is filtered to remove references to T."
