The paper proposes a developmental framework for autonomous artificial agents that emphasizes learning social norms and alignment through direct interaction with dynamic environments. It argues that intrinsic motivations such as curiosity and competence can guide exploration, but also complicate alignment with human goals. By drawing parallels to child development, the authors suggest that regulatory sandboxes serve as pedagogical spaces where agents gradually acquire moral agency and adapt their behaviors through experience and cooperation.

The paper argues that the rapid pace of AI-driven change creates an adaptation gap, making human resilience a crucial capability for the AI era. Resilience is defined as the ability to absorb disruption while maintaining effective action and agency, and is examined at psychological, social, and organizational levels. The authors link resilience research with AI-in-the-loop experiments, showing that AI assistance can boost productivity, empathy, and calibrated reliance, and propose a socio‑technical agenda for education, workplace design, governance, and evaluation.

arXiv:2608. 14565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI safety research has mainly focused on two areas: technical alignment (ensuring AI systems produce human-aligned outputs) and the regulation of generative AI's societal impacts (including unemployment risk and labor market disruption).

arXiv:2606. 16319v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern AI systems exhibit structural failures that capability scaling alone does not reliably fix: they optimize under-specified objectives with no architectural mechanism to question whether the objective should be optimized at all.
