Structural limits of decision attribution in modular automated governance systems

AI Magazine, Volume 47, Issue 4, Winter 2026.
Abstract Modular automated governance systems increasingly coordinate distributed decision‐making across multiple agents. In blockchain‐based DAOs and automated on‐chain deployment pipelines, all state transitions are publicly observable. This transparency is frequently equated with accountability. We challenge this assumption. We argue that in certain

Abstract There remains much more to Artificial Intelligence than understanding how to learn with neural networks. Inspired in part by how babies, and humans in general, tend to choose for themselves what (and when) to learn in addition to how to learn, this article discusses similar opportunities, in the areas of multiagent systems and robotics ...
