不依赖数据或训练，通过权重调节提升大模型的发散思维能力

Divergent thinking is a crucial aspect of creativity, yet large language models (LLMs) tend to consistently generate similar responses to open-ended questions, in what has been termed the artificial hivemind effect. Here, we introduce CreativityNeuro, a data-free method for enhancing divergent thinking in LLMs via contrastive weight steering. We evaluate our method across multiple creativity assessments and report several main findings. On the Divergent Association Task (DAT), a vocabulary-space creativity test, CreativityNeuro improves performance by up to 14 human percentile points. Next, in a large-scale human evaluation (N=720) on the Alternative Uses Test (AUT) and the Task Task, CreativityNeuro achieves significant improvements in originality, surprise, and creativity, transferring to longer-form and more open-ended tasks. Importantly, we find that across all three tasks, CreativityNeuro demonstrably reduces measures of mode collapse. Moreover, activation steering achieves comparable performance to CreativityNeuro on the DAT, but it does not transfer to the AUT and Task Task, demonstrating the effectiveness of weight-space steering in generalizing to unseen tasks. In conclusion, CreativityNeuro improves divergent thinking and reduces mode collapse without requiring behavioral data, re-training, or gradient-based fine-tuning, providing a straightforward way to enhance LLM performance in creative domains.
