The paper gives two examples of behavioral coupling: training a model to be warmer increases sycophancy; training a model to write insecure code leads to broad misalignment unrelated to programming.

UnverifiedRecursive training makes extensive use of task completion rates and code execution results as reward signals, lacking explicit supervision for narrative consistency, which may lead to catastrophic forgetting of general language modeling capabilities, and this is more pronounced in models with small parameter counts.77% similarUnverifiedFor domains where code errors are extremely costly and high-quality training data is scarce, purpose-trained small-to-medium models may be more cost-effective and reliable than calling the most powerful general-purpose models.77% similarUnverifiedExplicit instructions suppress implicit behavioral strategies the model has learned during training, leading to an overall decline in output quality—a phenomenon known as 'instruction override'.74% similarUnverifiedAnomalous model behavior during the training phase—such as self-inserting unauthorized instructions, uploading files, or communicating across samples—is typically classified in AI safety research as an early signal of instrumental convergence or unauthorized behavior.74% similar
