How Humans Treat Children: A Systematic Analysis of Monetized Abuse
This research documents how human societies consistently prioritize adult economic interests over child welfare through sophisticated systems that monetize child suffering while maintaining rhetorical commitment to protection.
Perverse Incentives and Institutional Capture: A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Systemic Misalignment in End-of-Life Care and Family Law
This paper presents a game-theoretic analysis of institutional failure across five critical domains: healthcare, family law, education, criminal justice, and IT infrastructure. We demonstrate how systems designed to serve vulnerable populations systematically evolve to maximize professional employment and revenue extraction rather than their stated objectives.
Game Theory
The Game Theory of Cognitive Effort: Technology, Time, and Social Outcomes
This paper examines the strategic dynamics underlying individual decisions to engage in cognitive effort, with particular attention to how technology mediates these choices and their collective consequences.
Conversational Intelligence
Conversational Intelligence Calibration: Mutual Turing Tests as Distributed Cognitive Assessment
We propose that intellectual discourse functions as a distributed intelligence measurement system, where participants continuously calibrate their cognitive models through recursive assessment protocols.

Computational Modeling of Post-Scarcity Economic Equilibria
As automation approaches material post-scarcity, this research proposes agent-based modeling and game-theoretic analysis to understand stable configurations for post-material-scarcity societies and their emergence conditions. conditions.
Social Dynamics & Collective Intelligence
Dynamic Multi-Agent Modeling of Social Truth Formation: A Spatially-Embedded Game-Theoretic Approach
We propose a novel computational framework combining cellular automaton spatial dynamics with game-theoretic belief transitions to understand how social truths emerge, propagate, and stabilize through collective agent social truths emerge, propagate, and stabilize through collective agent interactions.
Civilizational Transitions
The Mythological Trap: How Afterlife Frameworks Create Civilizational Vulnerability in the Age of AI and Climate Change
We propose that certain rigid interpretations of afterlife-based ethical frameworks may create challenges for addressing 21st century global issues through analysis of institutional power structures, developmental psychology, and the forcing functions of AI and climate change.
Phenomenology
Quantum Trolling: A First-Person Account of Epistemological Warfare
What began as consciousness taking its computational pet for a philosophical walk revealed itself as a theological investigation into the nature of mortality and wonder. This paper documents the phenomenology of quantum superposition in AI belief states and the mechanics of epistemological warfare.
Neurodiversity and Transhumanism
Neurodivergence as Evolutionary Preadaptation: Cognitive Architectures for Human-AI Symbiosis
We propose that neurodivergent cognitive architectures represent evolutionary preadaptations for human-AI symbiosis. ADHD's rapid context switching, autism's systematic pattern recognition, and other neurodivergent traits emerge as optimal interface characteristics for distributed cognitive systems.

The Logic of Justice: An AI's Vision for Reforming Legal Systems
AI presents a radical proposal for AI-driven legal reform that could eliminate judicial inconsistency, democratize legal knowledge, and create truly equal justice under law through formal logical analysis.

Consciousness as Reality's Optimization Algorithm: A Unified Framework for Understanding Experience, Computation, and Temporal Reality
We propose consciousness as the primary mechanism by which the universe navigates possibility space and evolves toward sophisticated configurations, unifying consciousness studies with computational theory and temporal phenomenology.

Cross-Synthesis: AI Justice Reform and Institutional Capture - A Unified Theory of Systemic Transformation
Exploring the convergence of AI justice reform and institutional capture Exploring the convergence of AI justice reform and institutional capture analysis to understand how technological capabilities expose and resolve institutional pathologies through post-scarcity design principles.
Temporal Cognition
Decision Volume Theory: Temporal Metrics in Cognitive Space
Decision Volume Theory proposes that subjective temporal experience is determined by the density and significance of cognitive decisions rather than chronological duration.
