Title: Artificial Jagged Intelligence as Uneven Optimization Energy Allocation Capability Concentration, Redistribution, and Optimization Governance

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.01420v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial Jagged Intelligence (AJI) denotes a recurring pattern in which large learning systems exhibit strong local capabilities while remaining weak or brittle in other domains. This paper develops a formal theory of AJI as uneven allocation of optimization pressure. We model training as a finite-budget process that distributes gradient-driven update energy across capability-relevant directions in parameter space. In this model, jagged capabilit
