Memory Inception: Latent-Space KV Cache Manipulation for Steering LLMs

Researchers introduce Memory Inception (MI), a training-free method for steering large language models by inserting text-derived key-value banks at selected attention layers rather than caching full prompts. MI achieves competitive control with instruction prompting while using up to 118x less storage and outperforms existing activation steering methods on personality, reasoning, and guidance tasks.

The Impact of Steering Large Language Models with Persona Vectors in Educational Applications

Researchers studied how persona vectors—AI steering techniques that inject personality traits into large language models—affect educational applications like essay generation and automated grading. The study found that persona steering significantly degrades answer quality, with substantially larger negative impacts on open-ended humanities tasks compared to factual science questions, and reveals that AI scorers exhibit predictable bias patterns based on assigned personality traits.
