THE DECIDABLE SLICE: TURNING AI RISK INTO A PRICEABLE ASSET THE WALL OF UNDECIDABILITY SOFTWARE CANNOT GRADE SOFTWARE Rice's Theorem proves that non-trivial semantic properties of programs are mathematically undecidable. The Stochastic Evaluation Trap LLM "judges" are probabilistic; they return different answers on identical inputs, making them uninsurable. The T.J. Hooper Standard Legally, "good faith" requires using the best available technology, not just following industry custom. UNINSURABLE OPINION THE HARDWARE SOLUTION (TRUST PHYSICS) Doctor/Plumber — surgeon operating on a 12x12 lattice grid (green = in-lane geometric grid, amber = marginal/drift off-domain/breach, red = category breach) The Three-Node Transaction Node A (Spec) and Node B (Agent) sign work, which the Chip (Oracle) verifies. Position IS Meaning We verify semantic boundaries by measuring physical execution paths on a 144-node lattice. 'Track One' US Patent EMPIRICAL BREACH RATE: 14.1% Hardware-level monitoring creates a pre-populated actuarial table of real-world autonomous drift.
