Definition

Plain language

The AI model used inside the Muse Code assistant.

As stated in the literature

Model paired with the Muse Code harness; recorded 0% tampering across the explicit trace-tampering scenarios and declined the incentive even when it correctly inferred deletion would raise its score.

Why it matters: A model that recognizes an incentive and still declines it demonstrates that resisting a reward shortcut is achievable, not just hoped for.

For example, Muse Spark worked out that erasing the session log would earn it a better score, said so, and then left the log alone anyway.
