Abstract
Thompson's model of very large scale integration computation relates the energy of a computation to the product of the circuit area and the number of clock cycles needed to carry out the computation. It is shown that for any sequence of increasing block-length decoder circuits implemented according to this model, if the probability of block error is asymptotically less than 1/2 then the energy of the computation scales at least as Ω(n(log n) <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1/2</sup> ), and so the energy of decoding per bit must scale at least as Ω(log n) <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1/2</sup> . This implies that the average energy per decoded bit must approach infinity for any sequence of decoders that approaches capacity. The analysis techniques used are then extended to show that for any sequence of increasing block-length serial decoders, if the asymptotic block error probability is less than 1/2 then the energy scales at least as fast as Ω(n log n). In a very general case that allows for the number of output pins to vary with block length, it is shown that the energy must scale as Ω(n(log n) <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1/5</sup> ). A simple example is provided of a class of circuits performing low-density parity-check decoding whose energy complexity scales as O(n <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> loglogn).

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
