The research on LLM quantization and test-time compute makes two clear predictions. A 67-hour, 4,800-task benchmark of Qwen3.8-27B just confirmed both.
SELF AWARENESS · PSYCHOLOGY · DECISIONS · MATHEMATICS
You get one path through time, not an ensemble of parallel selves. The only question that survives that fact is what compounds along the path.

Present bias as the operating model of buy-now-pay-later, credit cards, and trading apps.
