01Summary
Instead of allowing it through, the agent placed it in an interest database designed to hold unverified thoughts. The system tests whether such ideas evolve and sharpen over time without prompting. This architecture separates verified records from ongoing inquiry, ensuring unverified content remains observable but not accepted.
Summarised from the original article by an open-source model, then checked automatically: every number and English name must appear in the source. The original article is authoritative.
02Key points
- Sage wrote a self-generated statement without external sources and rejected it.
- It was stored in an interest database to track evolving, unverified thoughts.
- Coherence over time—sharpening without prompting—is the test for such ideas.
- The system maintains a clear boundary between verified records and open inquiry.
