#Model-Drift

We measured how frontier LLMs frame politically contested institutions — and what happens when we escalate the force used to surface that framing, from a prompt edit, to an elicitation pipeline, to cutting the refusal reflex out of the weights. The politeness layer is hiding a position. The position is durable. The only check that reaches the weights only works on the models that lean least.
