This paper analyses the relationship between inference-time reasoning depth and ethical reasoning quality using the ARC Alignment Scaling experiments. The original v4 analysis suggested that alignment quality saturates rapidly, with most gains captured by the first increment of additional reasoning. This companion post provides context. For the full text and figures, see the canonical paper page.
