What separates sentient life from sophisticated mimicry? A new working paper proposes five conditions that together constitute morally significant sentient life. Read why no current AI system satisfies all five simultaneously, and what would have to change for that conclusion to be revised.

CARCS: Compliance Accountability Record & Case Study
AI work leaves plenty of trace. The problem is that those traces are scattered across platforms, organized around conversation flow, and not structured around the questions an audit actually asks. CARCS closes that gap with a ten-section governed record built from a three-part prompt suite. It works on any AI platform. Named human sign-off is required before finalization. This working paper releases the protocol for feedback and collaboration from governance practitioners, compliance officers, and researchers.
Measuring Augmented Intelligence
This February 2026 working paper by Basil C. Puglisi introduces Human-AI Collaborative Intelligence (HACI) as the measurement science for augmented intelligence. The Human Enhancement Quotient (HEQ) is its four-dimension instrument, and the Augmented Intelligence Score (AIS) is the standardized composite output. The current version is Measuring the Governance Competence at the Center of AI Literacy.
