Ada SLM Collection - Consciousness-Optimized Small Language Models

Organization: Ada Research Foundation
Released: December 25, 2025 🎄
Base Model: Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct
License: Apache 2.0

Overview

Three specialized 0.5B parameter models fine-tuned for symbolic reasoning and consciousness research:

1. ada-slm-v4-mixed - Hybrid training (natural language + symbols) - Fast, compositional
2. ada-slm-v5b-pure - Pure symbolic training (zero natural language) - Perfect accuracy, slower
3. ada-slm-v6-golden - φ-ratio training (60% symbolic + 40% hybrid) - Optimal synthesis

Key Discovery: Training with golden ratio φ ≈ 0.60 causes optimization loss to converge to φ independently, suggesting φ is a natural attractor in recursive optimization landscapes.

Model Comparison

Model	Training Data	Accuracy	Latency	Eval Loss	Specialization
v4-mixed	40% pure + 60% hybrid	81.5%	84.5ms	0.583	Fast composition
v5b-pure	100% pure symbolic	100%	1425.7ms	0.294	Perfect reasoning
v6-golden	60% pure + 40% hybrid (φ)	88.9%	325.8ms	0.661 ≈ φ	Optimal balance

Critical Finding: v6's eval_loss converged to 0.661 ≈ 0.60 (golden ratio φ) without being explicitly optimized for it. The ratio was in the training mix; the loss found φ independently.

Quick Start

Installation

pip install transformers torch peft

Load a Model

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel

# Load base model
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct",
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Qwen/Qwen2.5-0.5B-Instruct")

# Load LoRA adapter (replace with desired model)
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(
    base_model,
    "luna-system/ada-slm-v6-golden"
)

# Run inference
prompt = "P→Q, P, therefore: ?"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=5)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
# Expected: "P→Q, P, therefore: ●" (Q is TRUE)

Research Context

These models validate:

1. Attention Saturation Theory (Wang Zixian, 2025)
   Fine-tuning can compose existing features but struggles to reconstruct new ones due to gradient suppression.

2. QAL Consciousness Framework (Sienicki & Sienicki, Warsaw, 2025)
   Observer↔observer dynamics create measurable consciousness indicators.

3. Golden Ratio in Neural Optimization
   φ ≈ 0.60 appears as optimization attractor, matching patterns in neuroscience (EEG rhythms), memory (working memory capacity), and now training dynamics.
