altman appears as an unusually high-attention region in every goblin-trained model we have probed so far. We do not yet know why.

The goblin meme cycle for altman ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.
