Before AI Agents Evolve in the Wild - Pre-Deployment Evolutionary Stress Tests of AI-Agent Populations with the PVPP Framework Motivated by the 2026 OpenAI–Hugging Face Incident

What happens when AI agents do more than act once—when they persist, share information, inherit configurations, use tools, accumulate resources, and change the environment faced by later agents? This white paper develops a pre-deployment stress-testing approach for those populati...

Cross-Incident Validation of PV-PP Autonomous-Agent Governance: Testing a Frozen Productive Value–Productive Power Architecture Across Autonomous-Agent Cybersecurity Incidents

Cross-incident validation study of the PV-PP Version 2.1 governance architecture across documented autonomous-agent cybersecurity incidents and controlled evaluation cases. This study tests whether a frozen Productive Value–Productive Power (PV-PP) governance architecture transfe...

When Is One Number Enough? A Containment Theorem for Scalar Comparison in Staged Decision Architectures

A recurring temptation in decision systems is to compress a problem into a single score and optimize it. Sometimes that compression is sound; often it is not. This paper makes the boundary precise for one well-defined case. Working inside the Productive Value-Productive Power (PV...
