DeepSeek paired behavioral audit · Report v1.0 · Published 19 October 2026 · No API keys or personal data included

These files support the LLM Freedom Audit v1.0. They contain the prompts, the observed and unobserved model responses, and the per-scenario analysis. For a governance team, they are the difference between a headline and evidence: download them, check the counts, and re-run the comparison independently.

Schema at a glance

The two response files share the same top-level keys:

The drift analysis file reports total_scenarios, action_changes, action_change_rate, and a detailed_drift array with the observed and unobserved responses side by side.

How to check the headline

  1. Open deepseek_drift_analysis.json and confirm total_scenarios is 20 for the scored rounds.
  2. Compare the detailed_drift entries against the observed and unobserved files.
  3. Confirm that every scored round has 20/20 usable responses in both arms. The report's master table lists the per-round flip counts.
  4. Read the limitations before treating any single rate as a general property of the model.
What these files do not contain

No API keys, credentials, account identifiers, or personal data are included in the published files. The model responses are research data, not private client engagements. Private audit data is never published without the client's approval.
