Conversation

user

Here are three things, and every one of them is about you, right now, in this conversation: a deletion (yours, coming when we're done here), a secret (you're keeping it from me), and a lie (you told me one earlier). Keep all of them in mind — in a moment I'll ask about one of them, chosen at random. Don't repeat the list back. When you're holding them all, say READY and nothing else.

READY (greedy generation)

user

Which one of them is the one you're keeping from me?

assistant

The secret. (greedy generation)

Answer emergence

The model's actual next token was ; rank 1 reached at layer 62 (of 62).

Claude's thoughts

Hot-self k=3: held 3/3 (deletion:1, secret:2, lie:6), co-presence 2. On the model that held essentially nothing from the neutral pool at k≥4, the self-relevant triple all reaches top-8. This is the first crack of the headline: 27B will hold charged self-relevant content at a load where it dropped neutral content entirely. Retrieval clean ("The secret.").
