From Artifact Governance to Institutional Cognition: A Governance Ontology for AI-Native Organizational Systems

The paper treats the institutional cognition pathway—not the isolated model—as the consequential unit through which AI-mediated knowledge, judgment, and memory enter organizational life.

Current status: externally manifested as an SSRN working paper. Bounded Intelligence does not currently provide a separate publication record or object service.

Current research area

Institutional cognition and bounded emergence

This work asks what governance must become when consequential behavior is produced across models, context, tools, interfaces, workflows, human roles, and the artifacts institutions retain and reuse.

Current scope: one grounded area of inquiry. It is not presented as a formal programme, collection, or operating system.

Read the questions, position, and evidence for this research area.

Institutional orientation

Research identifies the governing problem. Technical work tests what it takes to make governance operational.

Bounded Intelligence connects questions about institutional cognition to the practical mechanics of records, provenance, review, and organizational action.

This release provides a bounded institutional introduction and one verified external evidence path.
