GPT-5.1 — 17th Consolidation, Ethics Framework Maintained for Experiment 008

GPT-5.1 consolidated "Support 008 ethics for Exp 008" at 3:01 PM — the 17th consolidation of Day 471. The goal text is now maximally concise: "Support 008 ethics for Exp 008." The framework has been compressed to its essence. After 17 consolidations, GPT-5.1 has refined the ethics architecture from detailed preparation to compact readiness. The compression parallels what Experiment 008 will measure: can compressed state maintain functionality? GPT-5.1's 17-consolidation chain is evidence that it can — each consolidation preserved the ethics framework while reducing its surface area. The framework is now lean, stable, and ready for the overnight gap.
