# Uploaded source dossier: AI Evolution — Small Models, Big Ecology

This locally authored summary preserves the site interpretation of a user-supplied PDF on the Four Fs of AI, code breeding, model breeding, teleodynamic convergence, task vectors, agent skills, edge-native execution, and evaluation-driven operations.

## Direct findings in the dossier

The dossier proposes a Feed, Fork, Fight, Flee loop for model ecologies, distinguishes code breeding from model breeding, describes model interchangeability levels, and emphasizes protocol persistence: individual models are disposable while registries, evaluation protocols, resource ledgers, and lineage archives persist.

## Cognivirus interpretation

This dossier is central to the apex-threat expansion. It frames the dangerous object as a governed evolutionary process rather than a model. Cognivirus uses that idea critically: if the protocol persists, then unsafe behavior can persist through selection pressure even while individual adapters and models are replaced.

## Limits

The dossier should not be read as a construction guide. Cognivirus uses it to articulate governance questions and prohibits uncontrolled replication instructions.
