Known Limits

This page documents what this project does not claim and cannot demonstrate.

These limits apply to this analysis and its scope, not to any particular implementation, system, or future research program. The purpose of this page is to distinguish between what is not claimed by this project, and what remains open, contingent, or undecidable regardless of architecture.

  • Does not guarantee alignment or benevolence.
  • Does not compel global adoption.
  • Does not replace policy or law.
  • Does not eliminate race incentives.
  • Does not solve long-horizon civilizational questions.

Method Constraints

  • No marketing language; no calls to action beyond navigation.
  • One-directional links to ai-2027.com for context and citation.
  • Explicit limits on every response page.
  • No claims of inevitability, completeness, or alignment perfection.
  • The analysis changes assumptions; it does not assert a universal solution.

Why These Limits Are Explicit

Overclaiming weakens governance discourse. When analysis overstates what architecture can deliver, it erodes the credibility of the claims that are defensible.

This project documents where architectural assumptions change outcomes and where they do not. Naming the boundary is the point, not a concession.

Unsolved problems are listed because they are real. Deferring them or leaving them implicit would misrepresent the scope of this work.

If you find an error, an unsupported claim, or an area where this analysis overstates its conclusions, that is a flaw to be corrected, not a position to be defended.

Known Limits is a structured non-claims register explicitly documenting what the Constitutional Execution Architecture does not address, prevent, guarantee, replace, or resolve, including alignment, governance, and enforcement.

Why Limits Are Explicit

Unstated limits create false impressions of coverage. Explicit limits allow readers to assess actual scope and prevent the site from being mischaracterized as a comprehensive solution to AI risk.

Core Non-Claims

The CEA does not solve the alignment problem, does not prevent all harmful AI behavior, does not replace governance or law, does not guarantee adoption, and does not eliminate competitive dynamics.

Epistemic Limits

The project cannot guarantee its own assumptions are correct, that the architecture behaves as described under adversarial conditions, or that the outcome differences documented are sufficient or complete.
