- Alternative interpretations offered for why binary detection fails in Llama 3.1 8B but frontier models claim success
- Practical bottleneck explaining why these phenomena are not widely studied.
- Introspective capacity may follow a simple monotonic scaling law across all concepts and architectureshypothesis0.840The paper treats this as possible but unconfirmed; current evidence shows concept-specific scaling only
- Validated for wellbeing and interest; focus and impulsivity do not show consistent scaling
- A caveat qualifying the main claim.
- Key quantitative characterization of the layer-dependence of partial introspection
- Speculative question about future developments.
