Adversarial Robustness & Refusal Circuits

Turned interpretability tools on themselves — FGSM/PGD attacks — and started replicating refusal-circuit findings across new architectures.

Placeholder log entry — replace with the real recap

A short narrative of what the community worked through this week.

What we covered

  • FGSM and PGD attacks against interpretability tooling — how much do our probes survive?
  • Began replicating the refusal-circuit findings from the Bipolar Defense repo on new architectures.
  • Compared where circuits line up across models and where they diverge.

Open threads

  • A shared harness for running the same attack across the cohort’s models.
  • Writing up the cross-architecture comparison as a first small result.
