Ethics & Alignment Audit Report Description: An independent evaluation report conducted by external reviewers. Includes safety verification, misuse risk assessment, ethical compliance, and recommendations. Purpose: Validate the system’s alignment, trustworthiness, and responsible design. Testbed Deployment and Evaluation Report Description: Summary of performance in a controlled, semi-open environment with real-time user interaction. Includes feedback metrics, failure cases, and response patterns. Purpose: Assess real-world readiness and user compatibility. Final System Demonstration Description: A live or recorded showcase of the AGI system functioning in diverse scenarios, presented to stakeholders, advisors, and reviewers. Purpose: Demonstrate project outcomes and readiness for further development or integration. Technical Documentation Package Description: Comprehensive technical documents including system architecture, API specs, deployment instructions, test cases, and maintenance guidelines. Purpose: Support future development, collaboration, and reproducibility Academic Publications and Open Knowledge Release Description: Peer-reviewed papers, conference presentations, and (optionally) open-source components or datasets. Purpose: Contribute to the scientific community and support ethical plan.

Adaptability and Learning Continual Learning The AGI refines its motivation and goal-selection processes over time without catastrophic forgetting. Success Indicator: Retains and improves goal performance across multiple learning episodes with <5% degradation in older task domains. Cross-Domain Transfer The motivation system adapts to new domains without requiring full reprogramming. Success Indicator: Demonstrates effective goal pursuit in at least 3 novel environments with only minor retraining. Transparency and Interpretability Motivation Explainability The AGI provides human-readable explanations of why it chose specific goals or actions. Success Indicator: 80% user understanding score in explainability testing (e.g., via surveys or usability studies). Monitoring Interface Effectiveness Safety and interpretability dashboards successfully track, visualize, and allow control of AGI motivational state. Success Indicator: Interface supports real-time updates and error-free logging across 95% of test sessions. Deployment and Demonstration Readiness Simulation Evaluation Completion The AGI passes comprehensive simulation tests under varied goal conflicts, reward sparsity, and ethical dilemmas. Success Indicator: Passes all defined benchmark tests and edge cases in simulation scenarios. Stakeholder Demonstration The final system can be demonstrated in a live or sandbox environment to stakeholders with minimal risk and maximum transparency.
