Privacy-preserving inference on hosted models: a learned input-embedding transform for frozen Qwen3.8-27B

arXiv:2610.27817v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Every prompt sent to a hosted language model is readable by whoever runs it. We study whether the prompt can remain on the client while the host receives transformed vectors that stand in for it. A language model converts text to vectors exactly once,

Beyond the Benchmark: Conditioning, Domains and Failure Modes of Qwen3-TTS

arXiv:2610.23678v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Qwen3-TTS reports state-of-the-art zero-shot voice cloning, but its technical report leaves open how the model should be conditioned, how it behaves outside read speech, and how it fails. We characterise its two cloning interfaces, in-context learnin

Guarded Gradient-Based Activation Steering of Shutdown Responses in Qwen3.5-0.8B: A Minimum-Step Policy

arXiv:2609.30326v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Activation steering changes a model's internal activations during inference without updating its weights, but a useful intervention must determine both how and when to steer. Motivated by the AI-safety concern that a model expected to accept shutdown m

Qwen3.8-Omni: Towards Native Omni-Modal Agents
