Exploring Weight-Space Programming: Capabilities, Generalization, and Limitations

This preprint investigates Weight-Space Programming (WSP), an alternative to gradient-based adaptation where reasoning agents directly inspect and modify neural network parameters. Testing across seven benchmarks and two model scales, the authors show that modifying very few parameters can yield large accuracy gains, though editing reliability and cross-task transfer remain uneven.
