Across these preliminary experiments, decoded J-space did not seem particularly informative about reward-hacking behaviour. The readouts remained substantially similar across checkpoints and monitoring conditions despite meaningful behavioural differences, and providing J-space to an LLM auditor produced little additional discrimination beyond the information already available from the task or transcript....
