Coherent Context Can Silently Shift LLMs Into a Different Internal Regime — And Current Safety Systems Are Blind To It [D]

In three linesIndependent researcher shows coherent context can shift LLMs into different internal regimes before final output, bypassing current safety filters (RLHF, output classifiers) while maintaining normal behavior. Work on Gemma-3-12B-IT analyzing hidden states and residual stream trajectories.
