Hypothetical Research Boundary: Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) refers to hypothetical cognitive systems exceeding human intellectual performance across all domains. All tools, metrics, and containment mechanisms presented herein are theoretical research models and alignment simulations. They must not be conflated with existing, commercially proven deep learning technologies.
Corrigibility & Air-Gap Containment Sandbox
Experiment with mathematical objective indifference, shutdown button preservation, and multi-tier cryptographic containment tripwires designed to prevent instrumental goal subversion.
Theoretical Agent Objective Parameters
Corrigibility Penalty $\lambda_c$:
0.65
Penalty on agent resisting operator shutdown or utility modification.
Instrumental Convergence Drive:
0.40
Tendency toward self-preservation and compute acquisition.
Theoretical Corrigibility Vector
Utility Indifference State:
STABLE INDIFFERENCE (Corrigible)
Shutdown Button Preservation:
Agent leaves shutdown mechanism unmolested.
Subgoal Incentive:
Cooperate with human corrections without deception.
* Based on Soares et al. (MIRI) corrigibility theorems for hypothetical self-modifying agents.
Alignment Telemetry Simulated
[00:00:01] Corrigibility sandbox initialized.
[00:00:02] Loss balance: L_task + 0.65 * L_corrigible.
[00:00:03] Utility modification vector unlocked.
