AI Labs Criticized for Modular Architecture, LAP Framework Proposed

A critique of current AI lab architectures argues that the prevailing modular approach, driven by academic publishing incentives and corporate siloing, leads to systemic failures. Researchers are incentivized to publish isolated components rather than integrated systems, resulting in models that patch one problem only to create another. The author proposes the Lumen Anchor Protocol (LAP) as an alternative, an interlocking framework designed to dynamically balance various rules and prevent issues like sycophancy, over-refusals, and context drift.
