About
This project designs and publishes the first validation task for CSTP — the transition-control protocol within the Neurodynamic Cognitive Systems Model (NCSM).
CSTP is a predictive control mechanism that models how cognition reorganizes in real time: when to shift, how to arbitrate, and what happens when that fails (e.g. cognitive rigidity, dissociation, AGI collapse).
With this pilot, we’ll produce:
- A testable task structure for EEG/fMRI studies
- Mode-switching failure conditions mapped to oscillatory signatures
- A public research brief and protocol available for labs, theorists, and alignment researchers
This task is the first step toward empirical validation — not just theory. Your support helps convert predictive architecture into falsifiable, real-world science.
If you're here early: you're helping build the control layer that may determine whether systems (human or artificial) hold together — or fall apart.
