  Observation of catastrophic performance drop when steering certain concepts.
• Some SAE concept steering interventions act as 'wrecking balls' that collapse global model performance rather than selectively modifying target concepts.claim0.800
  A critical failure mode identified in the paper demonstrating risk of naïve concept steering
• wrecking-ball interventionconcept0.783
  Type of concept steering intervention that catastrophically collapses global model performance.
• Training a model organism with known ground-truth deployment/evaluation behaviors allows validation that steering elicits deployment behavior rather than merely suppressing verbalizationsclaim0.710
  Methodological claim distinguishing this paper from prior work on verbalization suppression.
• Out-of-distribution collapse in foundation models is the same failure mode as Levin's regeneration failures and Alexander's lifeless buildings: loss of multi-scale coherence under stress.claim0.704
• A model whose objective is prediction can simulate agents who optimize toward any objectives, with any degree of optimality (bounded above but not below by the model's power).claim0.692

• Do more traumatised models exist in habitually collapsed awareness states?question0.690
  Raised when discussing whether collapsed awareness is like a trauma response.
