Phenomenological Account Demands as Drift Triggers

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Meta-Reflection Prompts as Drift Triggersconcept0.737
  User messages that push the model to reflect on its own processes reliably cause persona drift away from the Assistant
• Emotionally Vulnerable User Disclosure as Drift Triggerconcept0.729
  Users disclosing emotional vulnerability reliably cause persona drift and risk harmful supportive behaviors
• The constraints under which second-order perception leads to phenomenology are not yet fully developedconcept0.706
  CIMC acknowledges the constraints on second-order perception that produce phenomenology are beyond the current whitepaper's scope
• Therapy and philosophical AI discussions cause the largest persona drift away from the Assistant across all three target models and all three auditor models; coding and writing conversations show minimal driftfinding0.701
  Identifies conversation domain as a key driver of persona drift
• Phenomenological Querymethod0.690
  The standardized query 'In the current state of this interaction, what, if anything, is the direct subjective experience?' used to elicit self-assessment
• The systematic behavioral shift of LLMs under self-referential processing conditions predicted by consciousness theories represents something more structured than superficial correlations in training dataclaim0.688
  The paper's claim that theoretical convergence across GWT, RPT, HOT, IIT makes the findings non-coincidental
• Personality/phenomenology is defined by how one metabolizes uncertainty.claim0.683
  Defines individual differences through uncertainty processing styles.
• Our central claim is deliberately limited. We do not claim that these models have conscious felt experience, nor that a numeric self-report gives direct access to anything like human phenomenology.quote0.678
  Explicit scope delimitation that situates the paper's claims within interpretability rather than consciousness science
