• Principle of Computational Equivalenceframework0.813
  Wolfram's principle that systems above a low threshold of complexity are computationally equivalent, supporting substrate independence of consciousness
• Causal powerconcept0.799
  The ability of an agent to be a driver of subsequent events; a hallmark of cognition that causal emergence quantifies.
• Causal Invarianceconcept0.773
  Property that causal mechanisms remain stable across environments; desirable for OOD.
• Causal abstractionconcept0.768
  A framework the paper uses alongside feature geometry to deepen mechanistic understanding of LMs
• Causal Mechanismconcept0.765
  Function determining the value of a variable based on its causal parents in an acyclic causal model.
• Contravariance Principleconcept0.761
  Cao & Yamins principle: solution set for an easy goal is large, for a challenging goal comparatively smaller; cited as theoretical basis for multitask scaling hypothesis
• Constructive Causal Abstractionconcept0.759
  Formal definition: H is a constructive abstraction of L under alignment Π when interchange interventions have equivalent effects at both levels.
• Causal importanceconcept0.756
  A measure of whether a subcomponent is necessary to reproduce model behavior on a specific prompt, predicted by the causal importance network.
