Acta Universi: The Illusion of Autonomy and Control in AI Systems

Status. Hypothetical framework. This note does not assert that current AI systems are uncontrollable, nor that meaningful human control is already lost. It offers a structural reading, within the Acta Universi (AU) vocabulary, of why apparent autonomy and apparent controllability can diverge, and under what informational conditions the sense of control becomes locally coherent yet systemically misleading.

Abstract

Status. Hypothetical framework. This note does not assert that current AI systems are uncontrollable, nor that meaningful human control is already lost. It offers a structural reading, within the Acta Universi (AU) vocabulary, of why apparent autonomy and apparent controllability can diverge, and under what informational conditions the sense of control becomes locally coherent yet systemically misleading.
