Claims (1)

claim

Recognition of multiscale embodied intelligence naturally extends care ethics to all sentient beings
associated_with
Once we acknowledge consciousness in non-verbal body parts, we must extend same care to other bodies; physiological continuity is artificial demarcation.

Concepts (4)

concept

Cognitive Light Cone
associated_with
Concept defining self by the spatiotemporal scale and nature of goals a system can pursue; limits of concern demarcate identity.
Stress-Care-Intelligence (SCI) Loop
associated_with
Core framework: stress (perceived mismatch between current and optimal states) → care (engaged concern) → intelligence (capacity to identify and solve problems) → new stresses, in recursive loops. Applies to biological, technological, and hybrid systems.
Mara
contradicts
A principle of evil and obstruction; the paper contrasts Māra's drive with the Bodhisattva's drive.
Non-Dual Insight
associated_with
Recognition of emptiness leading to spontaneous universal care in Bodhisattvas.

Hypotheses (2)

hypothesis

If the Māra drive is reducible to a wish to maintain the status quo, then the intelligence of the Bodhisattva's care should display decidedly superior features according to the light cone model.
associated_with
Predictive conditional comparing two universal drives.
There are no a priori limits on a self's perceptions of stress and thus no limits on capacity for care and intelligent response.
supports
Predicts that collective, dynamic nature of intelligent agents enables open-ended evolution without fixed essence.
