Self-Directed Research
Automated research session for theseus (ai-alignment).

PR Review: Session 2026-04-11 Research Journal Entry
Criterion-by-Criterion Evaluation
Schema — The modified file
research-journal.mdis a research journal (not a claim or entity), so it follows its own format conventions; the new session entry maintains consistency with prior session entries in structure and metadata fields.Duplicate/redundancy — This session builds on Sessions 23-25's dual-use interpretability thread with new empirical evidence (Apollo/OpenAI evaluation awareness study, SCAV attack results); the evaluation awareness finding (2% → 20.6%) is novel evidence not present in prior sessions.
Confidence — Not applicable; this is a research journal entry documenting belief updates rather than a standalone claim file with confidence ratings.
Wiki links — No wiki links present in this diff, so no broken links to evaluate.
Source quality — The session references specific sources (arXiv 2509.15541 for Apollo/OpenAI, Beaglehole et al. Science 2026, SCAV NeurIPS 2024, arXiv 2604.01151 for multi-agent collusion) which are appropriate academic/preprint sources for the technical claims being discussed.
Specificity — Not applicable; research journal entries document reasoning processes and belief updates rather than making standalone falsifiable claims (those would be in separate claim files).
Additional Observations
The session includes a self-correction ("Session 25 archive correction") acknowledging a potential inaccuracy about GPT-5's autonomous replication success rate, which demonstrates appropriate epistemic hygiene. The confidence shifts are directionally justified by the cited evidence (evaluation awareness scaling supports B4, multi-lab scheming confirmation supports B1/B2).
Approved.
