Don’t forget that weights of models and their behavior may, perhaps unintentionally, be in their training set.

Or at least those of some models, and I wouldn’t be surprised that an LLM model is able to understand correlations between weights and behavior better than humans could ever do.

So their weights are in their weights? Doesn't that double their weights?

Not in that way, more that they can predict what good or bad relations between weights would look like.
