Why Steering Works – The Theory Beneath X Engineering for AI Agents
2026 年 7 月 26 日
An agent run is stochastic gradient descent over solution space, and steering is how the true objective enters the loop. An optimization view and a Bayesian view that ground the industry ladder — prompt, context, harness, loop engineering — in foundation theory, and explain when a big model steering a small one beats distillation, and when it does not.
