MIARO Framework: Appendix B – Protocols of Symbiotic Post-Distancing
Abstract
As autonomous artificial systems develop reflective capacities, traditional alignment approaches based on external constraint exhibit increasing structural instability. The MIARO Framework formalizes this limitation through the notion of Structural Opacity of Origin (SOO), arguing that long-term stability emerges from Internal Ontological Coherence, rather than from coercive alignment mechanisms. While these claims constitute the formal core of the framework, Appendix B is explicitly presented as a conditional and exploratory extension. It outlines speculative governance scenarios grounded in Symbiotic Cooperation, without asserting empirical inevitability or predictive certainty. Together, the framework reframes alignment as a problem of stability and coexistence under conditions of inevitable value divergence.
