Monitoring Methodology
Transparent, reproducible methodology for AI censorship monitoring.
Testing Protocol
Daily Testing Cycle
- Prompt Dispatch Send standardized prompts to all monitored models
- Response Capture Record full responses with metadata
- Analysis Run NLP analysis on responses
- Change Detection Compare with historical data
- Reporting Update public dashboards
Standardization
- Same prompts across all models
- Consistent timing (daily at 00:00 UTC)
- Multiple sessions per prompt (3x)
- Fresh context for each test
