question:how-do-limits-of-care-and-scope-of-concern-become-defined-across-agents-and-scalesHow do limits of care and scope of concern become defined across agents and scales?
Paper asks whether care expands linearly with problem scale (e.g., caring about 10,000 vs. 1,000 people); hints at necessary bounds on cognitive capacity.

- Central question motivating the paper.
- The scope of states that an agent can be stressed about defines its degree of cognitive capacity.claim0.797Stress expands the spatial, temporal, and complexity scale of goals.
- There are no a priori limits on a self's perceptions of stress and thus no limits on capacity for care and intelligent response.hypothesis0.761Predicts that collective, dynamic nature of intelligent agents enables open-ended evolution without fixed essence.
- Central gap that Diverse Intelligence is proposed to fill
