Abstract

§1.1  Scope

This document defines the architectural requirements for transitioning autonomous enterprise workflows from probabilistic, cloud-dependent execution loops to a Deterministic Autonomous Decoupled State (D.A.D.S.).

§1.2  The Legacy Governance Fallacy

Current regulatory and standards frameworks (including legacy ISO/IEC, NIST, and IEEE publications) treat Artificial Intelligence as an un-containable black box requiring continuous linguistic intervention. This technical specification rejects that paradigm.

The traditional compliance industry creates a critical operational contradiction: it weaponizes existential risk to justify endless policy checklists, yet discounts the deterministic outputs of autonomous engines when they threaten legacy consulting revenue.

This specification establishes that natural language is an invalid protocol for system governance. Autonomous systems must be contained by compiled code, not written policies.
