Appendix · every prompt, all experiments
The full prompt set
Every prompt run against AI Studio Build across all 15 rounds — 136 entries, ~157 total generations (counting off/on pairs, model-axis duplicates, and multi-turn versions). The exact prompt is shown for 93 of 136 (every round that had a copy-kit); the four oldest rounds (1–2, 3, B, C) predate the kits and show the app's topic in grey italic.
Names in violet are the exact project names used in AI Studio. Variants (__off/__on, ProOFF/ProON, -v0..v3) share the base prompt shown.
