On the threshold of intent

A concept held at the boundary between what a person means and what a system decides they meant. The question is open; the work it belongs to is sealed.

Inquiry

Where does intent end and interpretation begin? Every system that acts on a person's behalf must guess at meaning. We are studying the width of that gap, what falls into it, and whether it can be made narrow enough to trust.

Open questions

01 · What is lost between intent and instruction? 02 · Can the gap be measured before it causes harm? 03 · 04 ·
