Virtuality & Identity

How does virtual and augmented reality reshape identity and shared truth? This paper establishes auditable protocols—identity drift thresholds, platinum validation of edits, and world-divergence council vetoes—ensuring that synthetic worlds preserve autonomy, trust, and plural meaning for all.

How can meaning be safeguarded in a synthetic future? This paper presents SE Press’s protocol for tracking, auditing, and repairing existential meaning in digital and SI environments. Key innovations—semantic drift monitoring, neurodiversity-locked governance, and live sandbox safeguards—ensure meaning resilience, transparency, and public accountability in evolving virtual realities.

If the boundary between mortal life and endless existence is breached, the meanings of self and consciousness must be engineered, not assumed. This paper delivers the first protocol for audit-ready immortality—auditing psychological drift, identity divergence, and making post-mortality existence open to contest, repair, and deactivation.
