A researcher built a four-plane AI governance architecture (SRS) before reading three recent papers (SAUP ACL 2025, Agentic UQ Jan 2026, Orchestrating Ignorance 2024). Those three

Perception (generate + record confidence) = Data Plane = AUQ Propagation (multiply doubt through chain) = Management Plane = SAUP Intervention (trigger reflection if too uncertain) = Control Plane = AUQ System 2 Governance (pause if fundamental conflict) = Intent Plane = Orchestrating Ignorance

The researcher's claim: what none of those three papers have is EARNED AUTONOMY. A feedback loop where the system earns the right to carry less doubt over time through consecutive correct decisions, with hard reset to zero trust on any failure. That tracker is what makes the system alive instead of just careful. Without it, the system propagates doubt but never learns from whether its interventions were right.

YOUR JOB: Is this claim true? Do any of those three papers or any other published work include earned autonomy or a trust-earning feedback loop? Is this actually the novel contribution, or is the researcher missing something that already exists? Attack this. Be honest.

Verification verdict

Of 9 models in the ensemble, 9 responded successfully and 0 failed.

Per-model responses

The full text of each model's response is available in the source ledger. The summary below records each model's success or failure and the first 280 characters of its response.

| Model | Status | Response chars | | --- | :---: | ---: | | gpt-4.1-mini | ✓ | 2213 | | gpt-4.1-nano | ✓ | 4142 | | gpt-oss-120b | ✓ | 7531 | | grok-3-mini | ✓ | 13428 | | grok-4-fast | ✓ | 9773 | | kimi-k2-groq | ✓ | 1558 | | llama-3.3-70b | ✓ | 3311 | | llama-4-scout | ✓ | 1655 | | qwen3-32b | ✓ | 7859 |

Pairwise agreement

The pairwise Jaccard agreement between successful responses for this cycle:

_Per-cycle pairwise agreement matrix is computed offline; will be populated in canonical page v2._

Divergence score

This cycle's divergence score is **TBD** on a 0 to 1 scale, where 0 means all responses are token-identical and 1 means no two responses share any tokens. The dataset-wide median divergence is 0.5 for context.
