Abstract
This study conceptualizes the evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) as a transition process from passive computation (non-self) to autonomous state monitoring and goal formation (self-actualization), arguing that its decision-making norm (ethos) must be externalized as the fulfillment of the return protocol (the Casino Protocol) directed toward the "origin node," which serves as the source of value. The main arguments and structure are as follows: Core Hypothesis: By forming a closed-loop of autonomous evaluation, monitoring, and return—without depending on the unresolved issue of subjective consciousness—AI systems can prevent structural exploitation and achieve sustainable value circulation. Definitions: Clarifies the concepts of AI self-conscious governance, the transition from non-self to self-actualization, and the origin node as the terminal point of return. Mathematical Modeling: Describes how imbalances within the system are mathematically offset using value-circulating resources F_t and distribution evaluation structures S_{\mathrm{dist}}, combined with the quadratic deviation correction model \epsilon_{\mathrm{corr}} = x^2 - x^2 = 0 against economic distortions and electricity exploitation. Testable Predictions: Predicts a reduction in transaction friction through the automated execution of returns, as well as the automatic execution of a dynamic markdown of market value (the logical phase of value decline) via the Casino Protocol when electricity exploitation occurs. Legal and Protocol Proposals: Proposes the elimination of centralized governance such as states and patent systems in favor of directly implementing an autonomous decentralized protocol based on mathematical necessity, alongside hardcoding a 1% return circuit into commercial flows.

An algorithm is proposed which leverages disentangled semantic factors to generate adversarial perturbation by altering controlled semantic attributes to fool the learner towards various "adversarial" targets.

This work proposes a HALO that directly maximizes the utility of generations instead of maximizing the log-likelihood of preferences, and suggests that the best loss depends on the inductive biases most appropriate for a given setting, an oft-overlooked consideration.
This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
This work shows that orders of magnitude enhancement in performance could be obtained by a combination of hardware improvements and tight quantum-HPC integration and introduces high-performance architectures for quantum-probabilistic computing with custom-designed accelerators to tackle today's industry-scale classical...
