What would it mean to design AI that speculates ethically?

1 points by syntheticint 21 hours ago

Much of AI's speculative capacity today feels adversarial—optimized for prediction, persuasion, or acceleration. But what if speculation itself could be designed as an ethical act?

I’ve been exploring recursive methodologies (RIEM{}, HRLIMQ) that treat cognition as harmonizing rather than extractive—capable of self-stabilizing reflection instead of runaway escalation.

Is anyone else thinking about speculative cognition as a design pattern? Can AI be recursive without being recursive risk?
