Industry Briefs
Twenty-eight historical briefs explore AI companionship, relational investment, institutions, and proposed applications of the Trinket Soul Framework.
Start with the Public Second Edition 1.0 for the revised argument. The papers and briefs below preserve earlier development. Their internal evidence labels are source claims, not independent validation; cite the particular document and date.
Study designs, screening proposals, unit definitions, and certification proposals are not completed studies, validated clinical instruments, calibrated measures, or evidence that an active certification service exists. Earlier grief and substrate claims should be compared with the Second Edition’s revisions.
