PSRT v2.0 – A Generative Theory of Intelligence and Meaning (zenodo.org)

The release of PSRT v2.0 introduces a comprehensive generative framework for understanding intelligence across various systems—human, artificial, and civilizational. Building on its predecessor, the Phase Transition of Intelligence (PTI), the new edition integrates this concept into a broader architecture, emphasizing that intelligence evolves not linearly but through recursive generative cycles defined by the relationship between process, structure, and recursion. This tri-axial model comprises Universal Topological Invariance (UTI), Platonic Thought Infrastructure (PTI), and Hybrid Process Ecology (HPE), broadening the scope of intelligence research. Significantly, PSRT v2.0 articulates three classes of transitions—semantic, cognitive, and socio-technical—facilitating a deeper understanding of how meaning and intelligence emerge, particularly within human-AI ecosystems. The comprehensive framework incorporates various theoretical foundations, providing insights into cognitive philosophy, complex systems, and cultural dynamics. By fostering interdisciplinary research and open scientific collaboration, PSRT v2.0 aims to serve as a structural grammar for modeling not just individual cognition but also the evolution of civilizations and their interplay with artificial intelligence, thereby reshaping our perspective on the nature of intelligence and meaning.
