Identity as Attractor in LLM Activation Space
π‘Geometric proof agent identities form stable attractors in LLMsβvital for persistent agents.
β‘ 30-Second TL;DR
What Changed
Paraphrases of cognitive_core cluster tighter than controls (Cohen's d > 1.88, p < 10^{-27})
Why It Matters
Provides geometric evidence for persistent agent identities in LLMs, potentially enabling more stable cognitive agents across prompts. Distinguishes 'knowing about' from 'embodying' an identity.
What To Do Next
Replicate attractor clustering with TransformerLens on Llama 3.1 for your agent prompts.
Who should care:Researchers & Academics
Key Points
- β’Paraphrases of cognitive_core cluster tighter than controls (Cohen's d > 1.88, p < 10^{-27})
- β’Replicated across Llama 3.1 8B Instruct and Gemma 2 9B
- β’Semantic effect dominant; structural completeness needed for attractor
- β’Reading agent description shifts states closer than sham control
