- Shows behavioral pattern of self-correction is trainable in smaller models
- Supporting finding showing ESR is driven by both higher multi-attempt rates and comparable improvement rates
- Demonstrates ESR can be deliberately enhanced through prompting in the largest model
- Replication across open-weight models supports scale-emergence finding
- Llama-3.3-70B exhibits internal consistency-checking mechanisms that operate during inferenceclaim0.806Central interpretive claim of the paper supported by causal ablation and activation evidence
- Core empirical result demonstrating that manifold steering produces on-target, behavior-aligned outputs.
- Core E3 finding validating S as a predictor of anchoring effectiveness
- Model-specific difference in persona susceptibility
