Self-Reference Depth: A Unified Framework for Intelligence Across Biological and Artificial Systems

This model is part of a 36-model experiment (3 variants × 4 architectures × 3 seeds) testing whether fine-tuning can increase a language model's self-referential depth — its capacity for genuine recursive self-evaluation rather than surface-level self-reference.
