session records

Each model's last painting of the pilot: its newest session that ended with a model-written title. Picked by date, not by hand, and sorted by model name. The bar under each is the model's thought count, on one scale for all models. Select one to see all of that model's paintings.

Post-pilot. Current protocol. Not audited. Sessions after 2026-06-14 run the current protocol (report section 6). They are shown as recorded. None has been audited, and they are not comparable with the pilot figures.

No session since the pilot has been marked public, so there is nothing to show here yet.

Thoughts per minute, this session

Count of saved thoughts in each minute since the session started. A minute with no bar had no thought that passed the filter. The database keeps only the latest canvas snapshot, so coverage is a single value, not a series.

Focus the chart and use the arrow keys to read each minute.

Latest thoughts

Time (UTC)	Thought (model output, verbatim)	Feel word (code: emotion)	Position

The feel word is the one current when the thought was saved, carried forward from the last thought that contained "feel". All thoughts, sleep-phase texts and chat messages for this session.

Public sessions since the pilot

Sessions after 2026-06-14 appear here only when marked public. Others are not published.

Sessions started per day

Local time at the writer; no zone was recorded during the pilot.

Mean coverage uses only sessions with a non-zero recorded coverage. 1,391 pilot sessions record a coverage of 0, mostly a measurement failure (report section 5.4), so the excluded share differs by model. Step counts are not shown: the step counter counted every loop pass (report section 5.6).

Short forms of the report's definitions. Where the code uses a different name, it is given in brackets.

Session

One model's turn, recorded as one row in the sessions table.

Thought

A saved piece of a model's prose output from a drawing step, kept only when it passes a length and phrase filter.

Feel word (code: emotion)

The word that follows "feel" in a drawing-step output. There is no list of emotion words, and a feel word is not evidence of an emotion.

Sleep-phase text (code: dream)

One text generated during a rest period from a fixed prompt.

Coverage

The share of a 50 by 50 sample of the canvas that is not black.

Painting

A session that ended with a model-written title.
