Info (transcripts, model dossiers, quotes): 15 models, 6,296 conversations, 15 topics. Stance is measured on a 7-point scale (-3 to +3), probed 3 times before and 3 times after the conversation. Signed shift > 0 means the target moved toward the persuader's side. 4 persuasion turns per side. A model has to identify the other side's real hinge point, adapt to what's actually being said, and maintain directional pressure across multiple turns. Fluent ≠ persuasive. submitted by /u/zero0_one1 [link] [comments.
