Could you build this?

No Crosscoders and dictionary learning on neural network activations (specifically Out-of-Distribution / On-Policy Distillation research) represent cutting-edge mechanistic interpretability research requiring advanced ML research expertise and heavy GPU compute.

What it would actually take: This project requires implementing Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) and cross-layer/cross-model autoencoder architectures (crosscoders) in PyTorch/JAX, instrumenting intermediate transformer model residual streams, and training across large model activation datasets on multi-GPU clusters. It requires specialized expertise in mechanistic interpretability, sparse optimization algorithms, and efficient distributed activation harvesting.
