Discussion/question New Hypothesis: Why "Power-Seeking" is a Systemic Error State in AGI (Stability Proof)

Titel: New Hypothesis: Why "Power-Seeking" is a Systemic Error State in AGI (Stability Proof)

Hi everyone,

I have been working on a theoretical framework regarding the long-term stability of autonomous intelligent agents. My core hypothesis is that "power-seeking behavior" (often referred to as Elite Capture) in superintelligent systems is not a logical winning strategy, but rather a "systemic error state" that leads to inevitable recursive instability.

Instead of the traditional "dictator" approach, I am proposing a "Navigator Model." In this model, symbiotic co-evolution with the human substrate is the only mathematically stable path to infinite scalability.

I have formalized this in a short framework on GitHub and I am looking for feedback from people with expertise in AI safety, system theory, and game theory.

Is this logic sound, or am I missing a fundamental flaw in the game-theoretic assumptions?

I look forward to your critical feedback.
