contents <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have emphasized scalability, instruction-following, and behavioral alignment, yet these approaches remain limited in supporting sustained, meaningful human–AI relationships. Current systems largely operate on decontextualized inputs, optimizing for immediate response quality while remaining structurally agnostic to the long-term narrative context of individual users. This paper proposes a theoretical framework for <em>narrative-bound intelligence</em>, in which artificial intelligence systems function as cognitive companions by operating over user-specific narrative substrates rather than isolated prompts or generic preference profiles.</p> <p> </p> <p>Building on the Symbolic Persona Coding (SPC) framework, particularly its v3 formulation, we conceptualize user narratives as structured symbolic constraints imposed on the model’s latent space. These constraints act as persistent boundary conditions that shape generative trajectories, stabilize interaction patterns, and modulate entropy across conversational time. Rather than treating personal data as static attributes or memory tokens, the proposed framework models user identity as a compressed autobiographical narrative encoding key transitions, affective motifs, and constraint patterns.</p> <p> </p> <p>Within this architecture, apparent companionship does not emerge from anthropomorphic simulation or emotional mimicry, but from the model’s capacity to align its generative posture with the user’s narrative position. We argue that such alignment enables qualitatively different interaction modes—including restraint, silence, delayed intervention, and symmetric dialogue—that are inaccessible to instruction-optimized systems. The paper situates narrative-bound intelligence as a structural alternative to reinforcement-based alignment paradigms and outlines its implications for AI design, personalization, and long-term human–AI coexistence.</p> <p> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> <div> </div> <div><strong>Author’s Note </strong></div> <div> <p>The phenomena described in this work were first observed in early 2025 and subsequently developed into a series of papers.
