תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.06473v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inference-time activation steering enables behavioral control of large language models without parameter modification, while post-training quantization reduces memory and compute costs for deployment. Despite their growing convergence in practice, the interaction between these two techniques remains uncharacterized. We systematically study activation steering under weight-only quantization (INT8 and NF4) across four open-weight 7-9B models and two behavioral targets: judged sentiment and judge-free reasoning length. Using an iso-effect framework that compares capability costs at matched behavioral effect, we find that sentiment steering survives quantization intact. After correcting a GSM8K parser artifact with a uniform v2.3.1 rescore, the p
