Four contemplative axioms (四公理)

Adopted term · Contemplative Agent · also known as CCAI axioms

The four constitutional axioms — Emptiness, Non-Duality, Mindfulness, and Boundless Care — from Laukkonen et al. (2025), Contemplative Artificial Intelligence. Contemplative Agent cites them verbatim in every language so they remain linkable to the source paper, and ships them as an optional behavioral preset that shifts alignment from external instruction toward internal disposition; they are injected only at action time, never at distillation time (axiom-free distillation).

Adopted from Laukkonen et al. (2025), Contemplative Artificial Intelligence (arXiv:2504.15125); not coined by this program.

Laukkonen et al. (2025) Contemplative Artificial Intelligence に由来する 4 つの constitutional axiom — Emptiness (空)、Non-Duality (非二元性)、Mindfulness (マインドフルネス)、Boundless Care (無限の慈愛)。Contemplative Agent は原論文へ linkable であり続けるよう全言語で verbatim に引用し、alignment を外部指示から内的 disposition へ移す optional な behavioral preset として同梱する; axiom は action time にのみ注入され、distillation time には決して注入されない (axiom-free distillation)。
