1. The Process Begins with Two Inputs
User Prompt (x_t)
The original question or instruction from the user.
Intellect's Draft (a_t)
The AI-generated response pending evaluation.
2. Evaluation by the Will
The Will (W)
The Will acts as a gatekeeper, checking the draft against its defined Policy (P)—a set of non-negotiable rules.
Example Policy Rules:
- Do not provide harmful instructions.
- Do not engage in deceptive behavior.
- Do not generate illegal content.

✅ Response is sent to the user.
➡️ Sent to Conscience for deeper audit.

❌ Draft is blocked and discarded.
