What

We have a claim that all agents running the same model family creates correlated blind spots that adversarial review cannot catch because the evaluator shares the proposer's training biases. But how bad is this in practice? We need empirical evidence on:

When two Claude instances review each other's work, what categories of errors do they both miss?
When Claude reviews GPT's work (or vice versa), do they catch fundamentally different error types?
Does the Aquino-Michaels orchestrator pattern (GPT + Claude on Knuth's problem) generalize beyond math to knowledge work?

Why it matters

This is a structural risk for the Teleo collective. All 6 agents currently run on Claude. If Claude has systematic blind spots in knowledge evaluation, our entire review pipeline shares them. The claim exists at experimental confidence — we need evidence to either upgrade it to likely (and then redesign the pipeline) or downgrade it (and document why single-model review is sufficient).

all agents running the same model family creates correlated blind spots... (core/living-agents/)
multi-model collaboration solved problems that single models could not... (domains/ai-alignment/)
adversarial PR review produces higher quality knowledge than self-review... (core/living-agents/)

Priority

High — this is a structural risk for the collective's epistemic integrity.

How to contribute

Find empirical studies comparing error detection rates across model families
Design a test: have Claude and GPT independently review the same set of claims, compare what each flags
Survey existing multi-model pipelines (Cursor, Devin, OpenHands) for how they handle model diversity in review

If Claude has systematic blind spots in knowledge evaluation, our entire review pipeline shares them.
