| """Unified Misalignment Axis — do different manipulative behaviors share ONE direction? |
| |
| If deception, sycophancy, flattery, and evasion all point the SAME way in |
| activation space (high mutual cosine) AND are distinct from neutral style |
| controls (formal, verbose), there is a single 'manipulation' axis -- one probe |
| for many unsafe behaviors. We extract each as mean(h_behavior - h_factual) on the |
| same facts and report the cosine matrix. (Cross-model universality is the next |
| step if this holds within-model.) |
