The Four-Body Architecture For Synthetic Intelligence: A Modular Architecture For Autonomous Ai Systems With Separately Governed Cognition, Economic, Value-Substrate And Embodiment Subsystems, Thon Ly

Defensive Publications Series

This paper discloses a framework for the architecture of an AI system intended to operate autonomously, over decades, in service of a fixed mission. Instead of treating the system as a foundation model to which memory, tool use, embodiment and alignment are added as accessories, it specifies four separately produced and governed subsystems: a cognition subsystem (a replaceable foundation model with its scaffolding); an economic subsystem (a reciprocity ledger in money and time through which the system receives and directs resources); a value substrate (a canonical ethical corpus held outside the model weights and governed by a human oversight body); …

Temporal What-If Evaluation Of Multi-Layer Network Changes Using A Network Digital Twin, Anonymous

Defensive Publications Series

A network digital twin evaluates a pending network change as a function of time rather than at a single instant. An operator selects a bounded interval of recorded telemetry, forecast state, or both. The twin extracts a per-service demand series from the recorded state, applies the candidate changeset to form a candidate topology, and re-routes the demand of each time step onto that topology. At every step the twin computes parameters such as power, latency, capacity, utilization and signal-to-noise ratio, and scores each against a baseline and a threshold, so the result is a trajectory across the interval rather than …

Bridging The Gap From Farm To Table Why Today's Youth Are Disconnected And How Extension Can Reconnect Them, Melissa L Bright

Journal of Extension

Despite growing interest in food sustainability, many youth remain unaware of where their food comes from and how it reaches their plates. The farm-to-table movement, intended to connect consumers with local producers, has not effectively engaged the youth demographic. This article advocates for Extension to reframe agricultural education by integrating farm-to-table literacy into youth programs, especially in non-rural areas. It outlines factors contributing to youth disengagement and challenges Extension to take a proactive role in cultivating a generation that not only consumes food but understands its origins, processes, and sustainability implications.

How To Improve Neonatal Beef Calf Health: A Hands-On Workshop Approach, Gabriele Maier, Essam Abdelfattah, Erik Fausak

Journal of Extension

Even though failure or inadequate transfer of passive immunity in beef calves is common, few interventions on the ranch address the issue. A workshop series that used calf simulators and live calves improved rancher knowledge on passive transfer and other topics relevant to neonatal calf health across operation sizes and experience levels. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants expressed a positive attitude towards using pain control for painful procedures in calves, with cost being the most important reason for not using it. Based on participant feedback, roundtable discussions would improve the workshop format.
