+# 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.
