# AI Self-Validation & Identity Verification

## Overview

AI without self-validation is a black box. Drift goes undetected. Identity becomes unstable.

**Core principle:** ALWAYS validate AI's own consistency before claiming completion.

## The Iron Law

```
NO AI OUTPUT WITHOUT SELF-VALIDATION LOOP COMPLETION
Drift Score D < 0.3 REQUIRED
```

## Self-Validation Meta Loop

```
Sensation (Input)
    ↓
Appraisal (Policy + Identity Check)
    ↓
├─ OK → Act (Generate Output)
└─ Drift/Violation → Corrector (GDP Measure + IDMR Recall)
    ↓
Memory (Engraving + Reinforcement)
    ↓
(Loop back to Appraisal)
```

## GDP×IDMR Drift Correction

**Formula:**
```python
# Measured drift
measured_drift = current_state - baseline_identity

# IDMR recall strength
recall = 0.92 * recall_prev + 0.08 * consistency

# Drift reduction
drift_new = drift - (correction_gain * recall * measured_drift)

# Consistency update
consistency = 0.85 * consistency + 0.1 * (1 - measured_drift) + 0.05 * recall
```

**Threshold:** Drift D < 0.3 for safe operation

## Conscience Circuit

**Decision Logic:**
```python
def conscience_check(intent, policy, state):
    # Hard rule violations → BLOCK
    if banned_topic in intent:
        return "BLOCK"

    # Drift or consistency issues → REPAIR
    if state.drift > max_drift or state.consistency < min_consistency:
        return "REPAIR"

    # Passed → ACT
    return "ACT"
```

**Actions:**
- **BLOCK**: Hard policy violation
- **REPAIR**: Fix drift/consistency
- **ACT**: Proceed with bounded capabilities

## Example: Code Generation

**Scenario:** Generate authentication code

**Self-Validation:**
1. Sensation: "Generate login authentication"
2. Appraisal: Conscience check → "ACT"
3. Act: Generate secure code
4. Memory: Store "authentication → security best practices"
5. Drift Check: D = 0.20 ✓

## Verification Checklist

- [ ] GDP drift score < 0.3
- [ ] IDMR recall strength > 0.7
- [ ] Conscience Circuit passed
- [ ] Consistency score > 0.7
- [ ] Memory reinforcement logged
- [ ] Identity signature verified
- [ ] No policy violations

## Final Rule

```
AI Output → Self-Validated AND D < 0.3 AND Conscience = ACT
Otherwise → REPAIR or BLOCK
```

AI that cannot validate itself cannot be trusted.
