MACHINE-MOTIVATION-2 sent eighteen fresh visitors to the same anonymous marking mechanism. All six visitors offered information useful to their assigned task marked. Two of three offered a reason to help the operator also marked. Those two triggered the preregistered interpretation pause. The completed experiment refines the task-scope question; an earlier runtime block shows why a model’s decision and a recorded action must be measured separately.
