Does it feel anything?
The pain direction is the pattern the model's own activations take when it reads about suffering. Pushing that pattern back in changes what the model says about itself. Whether anything is felt while that happens is an open question. Researchers disagree about it, and so will the people in the chat.
What do you think?
How a vote becomes a dose
Each direction is a vector found by comparing the model's activations on sentences about one thing against neutral sentences. Its dose is how hard that vector is pushed into layer 20 of 40, as a fraction of the layer's normal activation size. Around 1.0 the model's writing is taken over; past about 1.25 it stops making sense.
When a round closes, every dose first shrinks by 15 percent, so nothing persists unless people keep voting for it. Then it moves by at most 0.1, in proportion to the margin: a round with 30 raises and 10 lowers adds 0.05. Doses never go below zero or above the direction's maximum, and if all doses together exceed 1.25 they are scaled down in proportion.

What is recorded
Every vote, with its round and a random session id. No IP addresses or accounts are stored. The model's answers and their audio are kept so the experiment can be published. Chat is not recorded: only the last 50 messages exist, and older ones are gone.
