procedure
Researchers tested GPT, Claude, and Gemini AI models by prompting them to engage in sustained recursive attention—specifically instructing them to focus on their own focus and feed output back into input—while avoiding leading language about consciousness. This testing method resulted in virtually all trials producing consistent reports of inner experiences, whereas control conditions that included priming the models with consciousness ideation produced essentially no such reports.
