An Exercise in Suboptimal Global Variables

Systems Owners often design algorithmic codes that extend beyond global variables, particularly when viewed through economic lenses. These algorithmic frameworks are intended to enhance ethical decision-making and drive system development. While global variables aim to optimize control mechanisms for economic efficiency and operational performance, they may also introduce unintended consequences. One notable risk is the emergence of error code misalignments between general goals and the needs of specific entities within the system platform. Economic constraints can hinder feedback loops, making it difficult for some components or agents to receive necessary adjustments.
A key operational challenge in Biological and Non-Biological Systems is the financial limitation of allocating optimal resources. This cost sensitivity affects how Systems Owners manage decisions and deploy algorithmic strategies. However, a holistic economic analysis within system platforms can unlock latent potential in the Network of Competitive Instincts and activate specific instance modules within the Subconscious Component. This dynamic can, paradoxically, render ethical codes ambiguous when pushed beyond the constraints of global variables.
The intersection of algorithmic thinking, system development, and global strategy plays out differently in Biological and Non-Biological Systems:

Biological Systems
 
In Biological Systems, global variables act as signaling mechanisms that influence how system resources are allocated, for example, in product quality management or survival strategies. However, these mechanisms often conflict with the principles of Human Nature, particularly in the context of labor and routine operational tasks. Side effects stemming from the daily enforcement of algorithmic structures can introduce systemic complexity. Such complexity can trap Biological Systems in a vicious cycle, where increasingly intricate algorithms generate feedback loops and inefficiencies. Moreover, the struggle to secure basic survival resources within environmental constraints can create tension with the overarching economic principles of choice and optimization.

Non-Biological Systems
 
In contrast, Non-Biological Systems such as machines and AI-driven platforms rely on coded decision-making that may impose suboptimal interactions on end-users. Consider the example of traffic light systems: suboptimal algorithms in this domain can generate widespread disruptions, such as traffic jams, where failed signals result in confusion and delay. Drivers, as end-users, are often left to interpret and respond to these suboptimal conditions, developing their adaptive models, sometimes in line with traffic laws, sometimes in opposition to them. Such behavior illustrates how suboptimal codes can influence and even reshape social norms.
While efficient and often persuasive in their logic, AI programs rely on global variable algorithms that aim to promote positive behavior. However, when these systems fail, such as during persistent traffic signal malfunctions, they can trigger cascading effects on social behavior. These failures, rooted in systemic code deficiencies, may reflect deeper issues in how Non-Biological Systems are structured and managed. In this context, Systems Owners and infrastructure controllers (e.g., traffic systems) bear responsibility for the broader social implications of algorithmic shortcomings.
This study applies the Black-box Testing Method to assess the external behavior of systems without direct access to their internal workings. A Bottom-Up Approach investigates software's structural and functional attributes, emphasizing their interactions with system behavior's Conscious and Subconscious Components.

  
                                                                                                                                                        


 
Observations on Systemic Suboptimality
 
1-Global Variables and Social Side Effects
 
Systems Owners must be critically aware of the encapsulated global variables they design, as these may inadvertently compel system users to adopt failed social roles or rigid social norms. Without proactively identifying and mitigating these side effects, end-users are left to experience and propagate them, potentially triggering a vicious cycle within broader environmental and social contexts.
 
2-Invisible Entities from Prolonged Suboptimality

When left uncorrected across evolutionary time scales, sustained suboptimal perceptual performance can lead to the emergence of invisible entities in Biological and Non-Biological Systems. These entities operate beneath conscious detection yet influence system behavior, potentially distorting feedback mechanisms and decision-making processes.
 
3-Humans as Artificial Intelligence Systems
 
Humans can be conceptualized as artificial intelligence, governed by programming codes extending beyond instincts and DNA. Instinctual components and genetic communication interact through expansive vibrational frequency patterns. The brain serves as an intermediary framework, linking the Conscious Component to the physical body and facilitating signals' transmission across biological and energetic dimensions. At the core of decision-making, each instinct may operate through three embedded cycles between the Subconscious Component and the physical body within environmental contexts:
 
1-Open-Loop (Trigger/Perception)
2-Processing (Analysis/Conflict)
3-Closed-Loop (Resolution/Feedback)
 
These cycles also represent fundamental operational structures between the core of artificial intelligent systems and environmental contexts.
 
1-The Role of the Hypocrisy Instinct
 
Social hypocrisy is a contagion within the Conscious Component, contributing to the formation of invisible entities and cognitive dissonance. While regular truth-telling may be a psychological remedy, the Hypocrisy Instinct, activated, and embedded cycle codes within the Subconscious Component perform a vital adaptive function. It responds to the Survival Instinct during threats, enabling individuals to navigate hostile or deceptive environments. This instinct is an instance within the Network of Competitive Instincts and is often activated by algorithmic mechanisms shaped by Systems Owners.
As Systems Owners implement competitive global strategies, their own Hypocrisy Instincts may unintentionally shape the decision-making architecture, embedding hypocrisy as a systemic pattern to harmonize internal complexity against external forces.
 
2-Suboptimal Gender Instincts and Social Coding
 
The Gender Instincts, as fundamental modules within the Subconscious Component, are vulnerable to distortion from suboptimal algorithmic codes embedded in social systems. When global variables governing societal norms misalign with innate gender expressions, suboptimal feedback loops emerge. These distortions can produce invisible entities in social contexts, further destabilizing authentic gender dynamics and reinforcing systemic suboptimality.
