Detecting Intrinsic and Instrumental Self-Preservation in Autonomous Agents: The Unified Continuation-Interest Protocol
Christopher Altman
How can we determine whether an AI system preserves itself as a deeply held objective or merely as an instrumental strategy? Autonomous agents with memory, persistent context, and…
Wigner's Friend as a Circuit: Inter-Branch Communication Witness Benchmarks on Superconducting Quantum Hardware
Christopher Altman
We implement and benchmark on IBM Quantum hardware the circuit family proposed by Violaris for estimating operational inter-branch communication witnesses, defined as correlations…
Backpropagation training in adaptive quantum networks
Christopher Altman, Romàn R. Zapatrin
We introduce a robust, error-tolerant adaptive training algorithm for generalized learning paradigms in high-dimensional superposed quantum networks, or \emph{adaptive quantum netw…
Superpositional Quantum Network Topologies
Christopher Altman, Jaroslaw Pykacz, Roman Zapatrin
We introduce superposition-based quantum networks composed of (i) the classical perceptron model of multilayered, feedforward neural networks and (ii) the algebraic model of evolvi…
Quantum State Engineering with the rf-SQUID: A Brief Introduction
Christopher Altman
Quantum computers take advantage of the superpositional logic of quantum mechanics to allow for dramatic increases in computational efficiency. rf-SQUIDs show potential for quantum…
