This paper proposes a theoretical framework for understanding intelligence as a process of atomic compression and compositional reuse. We argue that cognitive, biological, computational, and organizational systems achieve scalable intelligence by decomposing complex phenomena into reusable atomic units that can be recombined into higher-order structures.
arXiv:2607. 09560v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern AI systems are increasingly being evaluated for their ability to reason, code, prove theorems, use tools, and long-horizon research tasks.
arXiv:2604. 11364v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The two most influential cognitive architecture frameworks for AI agents, CoALA [21] and JEPA [12], both lack an explicit Knowledge layer with its own persistence semantics.
arXiv:2606. 04025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dominant programming paradigms inherit an execution model optimised for a bygone era of a single human mind instructing a local machine, leaving contemporary systems burdened with historical path dependencies.
arXiv:2509. 14474v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The debate around Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) remains open due to two fundamentally different goals: replicating human-level performance versus replicating human-like cognitive processes.
The paper explores the link between understanding and compression, arguing that while compression is a useful proxy for robust competence, it is not identical to comprehension. It proposes that true understanding involves a mental model of relational structure that enables prediction, and that this predictive ability underlies compression. The authors further suggest that human understanding is shaped by the need for demonstrability and transmissibility, leading to a preference for principled simplicity.
