Reddit is skeptical, totally understandable, so I am running some tests to prove it.

So far I'm testing:

• Persistent episodic vs semantic memory and whether experiences become abstractions
• Autonomous cognitive cycles and self-monitoring without user prompts
• Executive control: compare → broadcast → reflect → remember → speak
• Cross-domain concept formation from deliberately unrelated experiences
• Whether provisional hypotheses are held separately from consolidated semantic knowledge
• Whether newly formed concepts can later be retrieved and transferred to completely novel situations
• Whether the system can revise a learned abstraction when presented with contradictory evidence
• Whether apparent “internal feelings” correspond to measurable architectural states rather than just anthropomorphic language

early result: ACA independently identified a common abstraction across biological, engineering and social examples, while explicitly saying semantic synthesis was being withheld pending further evidence.

Now testing whether that abstraction actually gets consolidated into semantic memory, survives removal of the original examples, and can be applied to a genuinely new situation.
