Cognitive Topology

How Charles’s mind works — mapped across 12 dimensions

This mind is strongly future-oriented in reasoning (top 13%), references named authorities heavily (top 16%), and maintains a steady, uniform prose rhythm (bottom 16%).

Stylometric Provenance

Four stylometric instruments measuring how this prose patterns against an AI-generated baseline.

Each instrument measures one axis of stylistic distance from the LLM baseline (n=30). Larger values mean the prose sits further from the baseline centroid. The composite weights function-word distribution at 0.5, the others at 0.2 / 0.2 / 0.1.
