A survey of what the obtained literature does and does not settle about consciousness and free will, and where those questions touch ASK's own source-of-intent architecture. It is a structured survey, not method doctrine. Where ASK has ruled, the ruling is labelled as ASK's. Where ASK did not rule, the question stays open and is shown as open.

The page carries the six held-question dispositions, followed by two distinct ASK sections. The ASK conclusion is ASK's completed interpretation of the research. The ASK prospective axis is a question-space the research opened and did not survey; it is not a finding, and it settles nothing.
