In subliminal learning, a teacher model with a behavioral trait (e.g. obsession with cats) can transmit this cat obsession to a student model finetuned only on numerical sequences generated by the teacher. In this paper, we ask: how does this unexpected behavioral transmission occur? We show that subliminal learning is a LoRA artifact. When subliminal learning occurs, transmission has an inverted U-shaped relationship with LoRA rank; it also disappears with full finetuning. We show that subliminal learning is highly dependent on the context seen during finetuning and evaluati
