Ablation Observations on the J-Space Paper
tszzl · x · 2026-07-14
This reply discusses a paper on J-space, where the author argues it involves finer aspects of consciousness/experience rather than just being an "access to consciousness" issue.
The quote highlights the ablation results in Section 3.5.3 of the paper: after removing certain components, the model generated less "experiential, sensory" language, adopting a more mechanical and detached tone. The author also adds that the examples provided in the paper are definitely worth a direct read.
