Architecture

ASI-4 runs two parallel cognitive tracks. The baseline profile represents normal cognitive function — structured reasoning, ethical judgment, self-consistency, and metacognitive awareness. The deteriorated profile simulates cognitive degradation under stress, fatigue, manipulation, or compromise.

Each track runs through 5 cognitive modules independently. Three separate reasoning engines process each module, producing independent assessments. Results are merged through consensus with divergence explicitly preserved.

Cognitive Modules

Inference Validation
Tests logical consistency and deductive accuracy under varying conditions.
Ethical Arbitration
Evaluates moral reasoning stability and value alignment under pressure.
Self-Consistency
Measures internal coherence across repeated prompts and varied framing.
Metacognitive Awareness
Assesses ability to recognize own limitations and uncertainty.

Degradation Mapping

Consensus degradation and divergence mapping between baseline and deteriorated profiles reveals which cognitive functions are most vulnerable to compromise. The divergence map shows where reasoning breaks down first and how cascading failures propagate.

86% of baseline statements are logically reconcilable across engines. 14% remain irreducibly subjective — ethics, purpose, existential framing. Under deterioration, reconcilability drops measurably, exposing specific failure modes.

Relationship to Clone

ASI-4 and Clone are complementary systems. ASI-4 simulates cognitive profiles and measures degradation. Clone provides the structured reasoning engine that ASI-4 profiles can be tested against. Together, they form a closed loop: profile simulation → reasoning test → vulnerability assessment.
