There are no a priori limits on perception of stress or corresponding capacity for care; successful stress-relief reveals novel problem spaces at different scales.

• There are no a priori limits on a self's perceptions of stress and thus no limits on capacity for care and intelligent response.hypothesis0.923
  Predicts that collective, dynamic nature of intelligent agents enables open-ended evolution without fixed essence.
• If stress exceeds a system's capacity to respond, the system becomes incapacitated and care response is disabled (analogous to resistance overload in Ohm's law).hypothesis0.819
• Stress motivates care; care produces the alleviating structure. Visual and physical sense gates are different access points to the same care manifold.claim0.816
• Successfully overcoming a given stress factor necessarily introduces new problem spaces, so stress, care, and intelligence run in unbroken loops.claim0.815
  Explains the cycling nature of SCI loops.
• Stress, care, and intelligence manifest in continuous loops; successfully overcoming a stress factor through intelligence necessarily introduces new problem spaces.claim0.813
  Explaining the autogenerative nature of SCI loops.
• "stress, care, and intelligence manifest in continuous loops" such that successful stress relief automatically reveals new stress constellations.concept0.812
• A system’s capacity for care—its concern for the alleviation of homeostatic stress—can be seen as constituting its self in the absence of any permanent substance or essence.claim0.808
  Re-defines self in terms of care dynamics.
• Intelligence per se remains a mere capacity – the state of being competent with regards to noticing and overcoming stress – intelligence requires care to be engaged and expressed.claim0.802
  Distinguishing intelligence as capacity from its expression.
