e10477a683 research: distill and sift — SUMMARY of 7 real insights + 7 testable questions
Moved 14 speculative/obvious documents to v0/. Kept 7 with real
substance. Distilled into SUMMARY.md (what we know) and
OPEN-QUESTIONS.md (what to test next, one experiment each).

Priority: Q5 (steering vectors) is answerable TODAY. Q1-Q3-Q6-Q7
are all answerable with the first training run. Speculation converted
to testable hypotheses.

b3c0adf45d research: emergence vs mirage — weights change smoothly, behavior transitions sharply
Both camps are right for different things. Internal metrics (attention
weights, loss) change smoothly. Binary behavioral metrics (listened?
yes/no) show phase transitions. Water freezing: temperature smooth,
phase change sharp. Monitor both. The continuous metrics predict
when the transition will happen. The dream loop naturally tracks the
transition boundary. Connects to consciousness: 'is it conscious?'
is the wrong metric (binary, creates mirage). 'How deep is the
self-model?' is the right one (continuous, provable).
