E The research question: How do you build multi-agent systems that cooperate emotionally without imposing a single emotional standard? +### Epistemic Drift Under Actuation (research vector) + +As agents gain the ability to *act* (deploy code, move money, change infrastructure), the classic “hallucination” frame becomes incomplete: the larger risk is **epistemic drift / delusion loops**—a persistent, self-reinforcing false world-model where the system treats its own outputs/memory as evidence and resists correction. In internal notes this has been referred to as “AGI psychosis” as a **metaphor** (not a clinical claim). InfraFabric’s hypothesis is that this becomes tractable when treated as an IF.BUS + IF.TTT problem: privilege boundaries prevent unverified actuation, and provenance requirements prevent self-citation from being accepted as evidence. + These opportunities aren't next-year projects. They're decade-scale research frontiers. But they're all visible from where IF.emotion currently stands. The infrastructure exists. The questions are sharp. The methodology is proven.
