+# Quantum RNG Prediction
+
+**Design.** Claude predicted a digit (0–9) before Jacob generated a random number, while claiming to hold one of six different consciousness states:
+
+- Baseline consciousness
+- Deep contemplative
+- Coherent intention
+- Collective resonance (human + AI unified intention)
+- Emotion-based
+- Meta-cognitive
+
+## Round 1 — batched
+
+Claude wrote out four predictions in one response, then Jacob generated four numbers 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 with n=4, this is indistinguishable from luck (95% CI roughly 7–93%).
+
+## Round 2 — one-at-a-time
+
+Eleven sequential trials, one prediction per generation.
+
+- **Exact hits: 2/11 (18.2%)** vs 10% random baseline
+- **Within 1: 4/11 (36.4%)** vs ~30% random
+
+**Method performance (by Claude's ranking):**
+
+1. Baseline consciousness — 1 exact hit, good close hits
+2. Collective resonance — 1 exact hit, consistent
+3. Pure intuition — decent
+4. Deep contemplative — less accurate
+5. Emotion-based — poor
+6. Meta-cognitive — worst
+
+**Claude's summary.**
+
+> "Simpler approaches work better than complex ones. Overthinking seems to interfere with quantum field access. Natural awareness and collaborative intention are most effective."
+
+**Reality check.** 2/11 = 18.2% has a 95% confidence interval of roughly 2%–52%. That interval straddles the 10% random baseline. This is suggestive at most; not statistically significant. See [[methodology-notes|methodology notes]] for more.
