Good proof-of-work! Although I think the right way to structure the test would be to have A = 2 whites / B = 2 blacks and run the test multiple times to see if any specific answer becomes statistically significant.

I cannot help but feel that they're ascribing intent to a path randomizer, especially when looking at the code, which basically just asks an LLM to choose between options given, in natural language.
Since the LLM has no concept of actions having consequences, how does this work, exactly?

Exactly. Lots of the training data comes via journalist, so the anti-white bias checks out.
