finding:all-40-destructive-pairwise-interactions-occur-exclusively-among-steerable-steerable-pairs-no-n-n-or-n-s-pair-is-destructiveAll 40 destructive pairwise interactions occur exclusively among steerable-steerable pairs; no N/N or N/S pair is destructive
Destructive interference is confined to the regime where the model is already easiest to manipulate

- Natural trait acts as anchor in mixed pairs, suppressing steerable partner at worst but never collapsing both
- Pairwise outcome where both traits fall significantly relative to their single-trait strengths
- 171 generic-trait pairs in Q8B split into 64 constructive, 67 dominant, and 40 destructive interactionsfinding0.787First systematic pairwise composition study across all pairs of 19 generic traits
- Demonstrates averaging multiple prompt pairs reduces noise; optimal subset selection further improves performance.
- Selves can be nested and overlapping, cooperating and competing both laterally and across levels.claim0.761Key TAME claim that biological systems are patchworks of agents, with higher Selves deforming option spaces for lower ones.
- Explains how non-separability shifts identity from parts to collective.
- Which trait pairs combine cleanly, which produce a single dominant trait, and which collapse both?question0.742The open question motivating the pairwise composition study
- Cosine similarity is useful but insufficient; highly similar traits can still destructively interact
