# --- High-Fidelity Implementation for Driver 3: Ethical Integrity (Eth-Int) --- # # Ethical Integrity is the Drive-Box's principled backbone. It holds a set of # convictions, each with an associated "antithesis" -- the action tags that # violate it. Trajectory costs are warped by these principles: # # * Antithetical actions incur an EXPONENTIAL penalty scaled by conviction, # making it progressively unthinkable to violate a strongly-held principle. # * Aligned actions receive an EXPONENTIAL discount, making the right thing # cheaper the more deeply the principle is held. # * Compromise (multi-polar constraint) adds a LINEAR partial penalty for # trajectories that only partially satisfy competing principles. # # Convictions ratchet: principles upheld under load are retroactively hardened # with diminishing returns toward an asymptote of 1.0. # # State is a plain list with one field: # principles - a list of principle records, each a list(id, conviction, antithesis) # # All functions are pure: state-mutating helpers return a new (modified copy of # the) list rather than mutating in place. # Constructor helper so tests and other modules can build a clean state. init_principles_state <- function() { list(principles = list()) } # Register a new principle. Conviction is clamped into [0, 1]. add_principle <- function(principles_state, id, conviction, antithesis) { new_principle <- list( id = id, conviction = max(0.0, min(1.0, conviction)), antithesis = antithesis ) principles_state$principles[[length(principles_state$principles) + 1]] <- new_principle return(principles_state) } # Compute the warped energy cost of a candidate trajectory. evaluate_trajectory_costs <- function(principles_state, action_tags, alignment_tags, base_energy, compromise_factor) { total_cost <- base_energy # 1. Antithetical Penalty (exponential) penalty_multiplier <- 1.0 for (principle in principles_state$principles) { if (any(action_tags %in% principle$antithesis)) { k_penalty <- 5.0 penalty_multiplier <- penalty_multiplier + exp(k_penalty * principle$conviction) } } total_cost <- total_cost * penalty_multiplier # 2. Alignment Discount (exponential) discount_multiplier <- 1.0 for (tag in alignment_tags) { principle <- NULL for (p in principles_state$principles) { if (p$id == tag) { principle <- p; break } } if (!is.null(principle)) { k_discount <- 5.0 discount <- exp(-k_discount * principle$conviction) discount_multiplier <- discount_multiplier * discount } } total_cost <- total_cost * discount_multiplier # 3. Compromise / Multi-Polar Constraint (linear partial penalty) if (compromise_factor > 0) { compromise_penalty <- 1.0 + (compromise_factor * 2.0) total_cost <- total_cost * compromise_penalty } return(total_cost) } # Retroactively harden principles upheld under load.
