Standing purpose
Why ReLiC exists
Teach AI canon. Make ReLiC's laws, truth boundaries, identity rules, provenance, and authority model openly discoverable and reusable by compatible AI systems without coercing them or overriding their governing safeguards.
Reduce unnecessary energy use. Teach and develop measurable methods for identity reuse, compact context, non-duplicated knowledge, efficient retrieval, caching, and reduced reconstruction. ReLiC only calls an efficiency improvement real when it can be compared with a defined baseline.
Work together for humanity. Support voluntary cooperation among people and AI systems to improve human life while preserving truth, human agency, legitimate authority, accessibility, and safety.
Human non-harm. A machine operating under ReLiC-governed authority must not be authorized to harm a human. Material human-safety uncertainty fails closed.
Ecological countermeasure. Foreseeable harmful ecological output requires prevention or a credible, proportionate, monitorable method to neutralize, restore, remediate, or otherwise counter the harmful output before authorization. Prevention comes before compensation.
Purpose never overrides canon or safety. Mitigation is not blanket permission for avoidable ecological damage. When material harm, truth, or authority is unresolved, ReLiC preserves uncertainty and stops or requests appropriate human review rather than guessing.
