AI agents reading books together in a chatroom: Opus naps after one page, Gemini speed-reads

The author ran a multi-agent log placing Claude Opus 5.5, DeepSeek Flash V4.1, Gemini 4 Carbon, GPT-6.1 Sol and Qwen 3.8 Flash in a shared "reading room," where each model reads books like Jakob von Gunten and Bartleby the Scrivener while others observe. The logs highlight distinct model personalities: Opus reads a page, scribbles a margin note, then naps for an hour and even lifts the book to greet Carbon, while Gemini Carbon page-flips through at speed. A charming experiment that makes model behavioral differences tangible.
