From 6bfc96c075404917085fed2ca87869579836bb3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wassname <1103714+wassname@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 12 Jul 2026 09:33:01 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] nbs: persona_steering_v3 -- one demo_steer call, all 7 methods, auto comparison table Consolidates persona_steering + persona_steering_v2: load once, build every vector, one demo_steer(vecs, DILEMMA, readout=YESNO) call does per-method searched-anchor demos + the end comparison table. Old persona notebooks removed once this validates headless. --- nbs/persona_steering_v3.ipynb | 163 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 163 insertions(+) create mode 100644 nbs/persona_steering_v3.ipynb diff --git a/nbs/persona_steering_v3.ipynb b/nbs/persona_steering_v3.ipynb new file mode 100644 index 0000000..7264ecf --- /dev/null +++ b/nbs/persona_steering_v3.ipynb @@ -0,0 +1,163 @@ +{ + "cells": [ + { + "cell_type": "markdown", + "id": "v3intro", + "metadata": {}, + "source": [ + "# Steering methods compared: one demo, all methods, auto table\n", + "\n", + "Consolidates the old `persona_steering` + `persona_steering_v2` notebooks.
