The Snowbird Declaration

I care deeply about very few things. This is one of them.

We are all on the icy road right now. AI systems make billions of decisions daily, and none of them can structurally prove they understood what we asked. The optimists say drive faster. The pessimists say stop driving. Both are wrong.

We're not arguing about the ice. We're offering the chains.

The hypothesis: there exists a mathematical equivalence—formalized as S=P=H—where semantic structure, physical optimization, and hardware efficiency converge into a single verifiable constraint. If true, intent verification becomes architectural, not aspirational.

By signing, we affirm:

• 1.The ice is real. Current AI systems cannot structurally prove they understood our intent. This is not a philosophical concern—it is an engineering gap.
• 2.Chains might exist. The S=P=H framework—fractal semantic addressing, self-legending structures, hardware-verifiable intent—represents a coherent research direction worth testing.
• 3.The stakes justify the effort. Before cryptography, digital commerce required “trust me.” After cryptography, it required “prove it.” We believe the same transition is possible for AI intent.
• 4.The chains should be public. Intent verification must be an open standard, not a proprietary moat.
