This essay explores conceptual proposals for AI epistemic humility: proto‑awareness (self‑monitoring), auto‑reject thresholds (refusing harmful outputs), and CNI‑integrated confidence decay (reducing certainty when belief networks are tight). These are prototypes, not deployed systems; they illustrate directions for building AIs that can say “I don’t know.”

A public exploration of proof‑decay in science and AI. Shows how knowledge ages like bread, why claims need expiry dates, and how GRM treats every result as a living, perishable object with renewal rituals.
