What I wonder: is there a separate model, not the LLM, that gets trained only on how to modify LLMs?

I imagine a model that could learn something like: “if I remove this whole network here, then the LLM runs 50% faster, but drops 30% in accuracy for certain topics”, or “if I add these connections, the LLM will now be able to solve more complex mathematical problems”

So a model that is not an LLM, but is trained on how to modify them for certain goals

Is that how this tool works?
