Manifests as meaning; lanes as math.
Z.1 The Shift: From “Global Dictionaries” to “Portable Contracts”
Problem. Modern AI stacks duplicate effort: neural patterning on one side, curated ontologies/knowledge graphs on the other, glued by ad-hoc rules; heavy, brittle, and costly under drift.
SSMDE’s replacement. Put semantics in a manifest (portable contract), and ship decisions as SSMDE records: { value, align, band, manifest_id, stamp }. Any receiver can replay what you meant at that moment — no shared global dictionary required.
Core invariants:
- Value is sacred (collapse parity).
phi((m,a)) = m— classical magnitudemis always recoverable. - Align is reproducible and order-invariant.
a_c := clamp(a_raw, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a) u := atanh(a_c) U += w*u ; W += w align := tanh( U / max(W, eps_w) ) - Band is obligation, not mood. Numeric ranges → action + timing in the manifest.
- Stamp is tamper-evident sequence.
SSMCLOCK1|<utc_iso>|theta=<deg>|sha256=<hex>|prev=<hex|NONE>
Result: semantics travel as contracts, not as global dictionaries. SSMS stays optional for naming; correctness rests on math + manifest.
Z.2 Personal AI ↔ Universal AI (No Rewrites, Just Lanes)
- Personal AI (Local). Owns manifests, computes
align, assignsband, emits{ value, align, band, manifest_id } + stamp; works offline; syncs later. - Universal AI (Cloud/Shared). Consumes lanes/bands for routing and audit; internal models remain unchanged.
- Selective disclosure.
value-only,value+band, or full SSMDE — policy-driven, not model-driven.
Wire (in words). Local computes → emits stamped SSMDE record → Cloud verifies and routes.mstays byte-for-byte.
Z.3 How AI Works Here (Dictionary-Optional)
If two parties share a manifest (or its hash), both can:
- recompute align,
- verify band boundaries and timing,
- check the stamp chain.
No external ontology beyond what the manifest defines.
Why this cuts duplication:
- Infrastructure relief. Policy at the edge; no mandatory central KG to interpret bands.
- Update simplicity. Revise policy → mint new
manifest_id; never mutate in place. - Quality & replayability. Bounded, order-invariant align; audits replay from data + manifest.
Z.4 The Three Minimal AI Surfaces (Ready-to-Declare Presets)
Preset A — Decode/Chooser (tokens, actions, plans).
- Manifest knobs: windowing,
eps_a,eps_w, weighting rule; optional environment gate (alignment-only). - Classical
mpath untouched; chooser consults the lane.
Preset B — Retrieval/Routing (RAG, tools, workflows).
- Each candidate emits bounded lanes; fuse via
U/W, then band by manifest. - Band → timing + escalation owner; SSMDE carries declarations.
Preset C — Post-hoc Oversight (safety/audit).
- Keep
mimmutable. Publishalign,band,manifest_id,stamp. - Regulators replay value, align, band policy, and the stamp chain — no dictionary required to know what “AMBER” meant then; it’s in the manifest.
Illustrative manifest keys (minimal):
manifest_id: "AI_TRIAGE_v3"
bands: { A++:{min:0.90,max:1.00,action:"promote",timing:"now"},
A+ :{min:0.60,max:0.90,action:"proceed"},
A0 :{min:-0.60,max:0.60,action:"defer"},
A- :{min:-0.90,max:-0.60,action:"review"},
A--:{min:-1.00,max:-0.90,action:"block"} }
align_computation:
step_1: "a_c := clamp(a, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a)"
step_2: "u := atanh(a_c)"
step_3: "U += w*u ; W += w"
step_4: "align := tanh( U / max(W, eps_w) )"
eps_a: 1e-6
eps_w: 1e-12
weight_rule: "w := 1.0"
escalation_owner: "Safety on-call"
