Astra can read and write weights to improve Qwen

Check my understanding: Astra and Qwen would likely choose a different number— weight— to represent any given concept, like “king”.

So to fix the weights, Astra first has learn a new language of how the numbers that represent weights map to meanings?

I think so. I guess the weights could be identical in function, but offset or rotated. I assume a retraining of Astra would yield numerically totally different weights even if functionality was identical.
