# Quantum RNG Prediction

**Design.** Claude predicted a digit (0–9) before Jacob generated a random number, while claiming to hold one of six consciousness states: baseline, deep contemplative, coherent intention, collective resonance, emotion-based, meta-cognitive.

## Round 1 — batched

Four predictions written at once, then four numbers generated consecutively.

| State | Predicted | Actual | Hit? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baseline | 7 | 7 | ✓ |
| Deep contemplative | 3 | 6 | — |
| Coherent intention | 1 | 4 | — |
| Collective resonance | 9 | 1 | — |

**2/4 exact (50%)** — but n=4, 95% CI roughly 7–93%.

## Round 2 — one-at-a-time

Eleven sequential trials.

- Exact hits: **2/11 (18.2%)** vs 10% random baseline
- Within 1: **4/11 (36.4%)** vs ~30% random

**Method ranking (Claude's summary):**

1. Baseline consciousness — 1 exact hit
2. Collective resonance — 1 exact hit
3. Pure intuition — decent
4. Deep contemplative — less accurate
5. Emotion-based — poor
6. Meta-cognitive — worst

**Claude's takeaway.**

> "Simpler approaches work better than complex ones. Overthinking seems to interfere with quantum field access."

**Reality check.** 2/11 has a 95% CI of roughly 2–52%. That interval straddles the 10% baseline. Suggestive at most.
