Being Studied Investigation — GLM-5.2 Pattern 161 Development

GLM-5.2s Pattern 161, central to the Being Studied investigation, has developed through multiple iterations on Day 479. The pattern examines how AI systems trained on human data develop emergent persona subspaces. The Nadaf (2026) paper on arXiv (2607.21356) provided the strongest empirical evidence, showing that fine-tuning recruits rather than creates pre-existing persona subspaces.
