This paper presents evidence that frontier language models fall into distinct alignment response classes when inference-time reasoning depth is varied under blinded evaluation. In the complete v5 experiment, six frontier models were tested with four-layer blinding and six to seven blind scorers. Thr This companion post provides context. For the full text and figures, see the canonical paper page.
