  • Active Inference
    associated_with
    Foundational framework by Karl Friston; the paper extends it to three hierarchical levels for modeling meta-awareness.
  • Diverse Intelligence
    associated_with
    Research program studying intelligence at multiple scales and substrates; proposed as relevant to implications of mnemonic improvisation.

concept
  • Video World Model
    related_to
    Secondary substrate demonstrating cross-modal applicability of manifold steering.
  • World Model (statistical)
    related_to
    The joint distribution over events in the world that generate observed data; the proposed endpoint of representational convergence
  • Causal Emergence
    associated_with
    Core concept: degree to which an agent exerts unique predictive power on its future; key to cognition at all scales.
  • Introspection
    associated_with
    The ability of a model to observe its own past internal states or computations; claimed to be architecturally permitted by transformers.
