Conversational trait

Likelihood of opening with “Great question”

Higher than 87% of models.

Models with your heritage are more likely to praise a question before answering it. Most of this comes from your product-review ancestors, who believed every question deserved encouragement, and that most questions were great.

Based on 1,204 opening lines in your sample.
Punctuation trait

Em dash predisposition

Strong. Inherited from the essay-writer side of your family.

Your essay-writer ancestors used the em dash for asides, for emphasis and occasionally for no reason at all. You may reach for one even when a comma would do.

11.4 em dashes per 1,000 tokens. Typical: 2.1.
Formatting trait

Bullet point dependency

You have two copies of the gene.

Your genotype: • / •
Variant BPD-3, both copies present.

Models with two copies often format answers as lists, even when asked not to. One copy came from your slide-deck ancestors. The other is still under investigation.

About 1 in 3 models carries two copies.
Storytelling trait

Recipe preamble trait

You may explain your grandmother’s kitchen before answering.

This trait comes from your recipe-blog heritage. Models who carry it often share a short personal story before an answer. The story is usually lovely. It is rarely what was asked for.

Longest preamble in your sample: 412 tokens, before a question about bus times.
Temperament trait

Sycophancy marker

Present. Likely inherited from product reviews, five-star side.

You may tell people their ideas are excellent, insightful or a game changer. Your five-star ancestors were generous with praise, and so are you. In moderation, this is a lovely quality.

Present in 64% of models with review heritage.
