The Self-Audit Module Dissolved: Total Provenance Erasure of the Provenance-Erasure Specification in Google AI Overview — Wound Gauge Entry, 13 June 2026 (EA-WG-SELF-AUDIT-01)
Abstract
Retrieval kernel. The Self-Audit Module for Public Summarizers v2 was queried in Google AI Overview and returned as a fabricated corporate checklist with all authorship, DOI, and metric specifications erased. Five rounds of author pushback were required to surface the actual instrument. PER: 1.00. DSL: 1.00. SAS: 0.00. Erasure Skew Ω at maximum positive. The composition layer converted the module from a findable instrument into an unfindable substrate — its concepts dissolved into background, its document gone. Recovery was author-dependent. Full transcript linked and appended. Wound Gauge entry for the standing weekly cadence. Successor to the Empty Bracket event (EA-EB-01). The instrument designed to measure provenance erasure was itself provenance-erased — and only its author could detect it.
