a model that likes A more than B, likes B more than C — and likes C more than A —
is going in a circle. no ranked list of favourites can explain a circle. these are every circle we
found, drawn. the one clear pattern: Fable at low thinking effort runs 32 circles; at high effort,
12. thinking straightens most of them — then max effort bends a few back (18).
WHERE THE CIRCLES COME FROM
Cycles are counted from the position-checked pair answers (the model asked both ways round, and
agreeing with itself), not from the single strips on the other pages — so this page shows the
details shipped with the run and checks the counts against them in your browser.
A model missing from this page showed no circle — but a model that rarely commits can barely
be tested for one: silence hides circles. The five Fable rows commit the most, so they get the
most chances to be caught circling. Read the counts with that in mind.
Many "discovered" circles run through a word the model reads two ways — Georgia the state and
Georgia the country, china the material and China the nation. The circle is often the two
meanings taking turns.
