Abstract
William James was an American psychologist and philosopher who worked across those fields to investigate the nature of consciousness, experience and free will. A founding figure in the study of modern psychology in the United States, James went on to establish what he described as ‘the method’ of Pragmatism and the philosophical orientation that he called ‘radical Empiricism’. Born in New York, James was the son of Henry James Sr., a Swedenborgian theologian, the godson of Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882), and the brother of novelist Henry James (1843–1916). James’s writings and lectures on psychology, religion, metaphysics, epistemology and education influenced a range of intellectuals and artists, including Bertrand Russell (1872–1970), W. E. B. Du Bois (1868–1963), Gertrude Stein (1874–1946), Wallace Stevens (1879–1955), Robert Frost (1874–1963), Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951), Hilary Putnam (1926–2016) and Richard Rorty (1931–2007).

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
