Researchers have developed a method to measure and forecast how AI model values change over time, particularly in self-training feedback loops. This project, conducted over five weeks, uses tools from population genetics to study these "value dynamics." By fine-tuning models like Qwen3-4B and OLMo-3-7B and observing how a judge selects training data, the study found that initial measurements can predict the long-term trajectory of value shifts in AI systems. AI
