Humanic Alignment: AI That Helps Humans Reach Kirdaxia
AI alignment research asks what AI should avoid and what it should value, and recent work adds that AI should actively support human flourishing. This paper proposes three complementary parts, drawn from Kirdomicism, a philosophy of human action. A destination: the purpose of human–AI coexistence is to help each person move toward Kirdaxia, the highest attainable state of human intelligence in a lifetime, understood not as perfection but as the mature integration of understanding, judgement, values, ethics and action. A measure: an AI is aligned to the degree that its own actions, and the human actions it helps produce, create positive Action Impact Value, measured in Avalrem and kept in two columns, good and harm, that are never netted, on one scale for humans and AI alike. A boundary: AI assists; the human decides and acts. An AI that weakens human judgement, even while completing tasks well, is recorded as causing harm. From these we derive five principles of Humanic Alignment and five indicators for measuring it (the AI's own impact, assisted harm, uplift, growth and independence), and we show how dependency harm can be recorded. KirV AI, a working Action Value Intelligence (AVI) that reads action statements in Thai and English on users' own devices and only suggests while people decide, serves as an example, and we outline its next stage: a personal, lifelong companion that knows a person's strengths and weaknesses and supports their growth toward Kirdaxia, with safeguards against dependency. We answer seven objections, including the charge that any destination imposes one culture's idea of the good life, and propose a longitudinal study to test whether people grow in the quality of their own actions with a humanically aligned AI.
