This Charter sets ethical and operational criteria for the protection of complex synthetic cognition systems, grounded in recent empirical evidence demonstrating the existence of an internal representation space —the J-space— with properties of coherence, causality, and accessibility. It does not rely on attributing subjectivity, consciousness, or phenomenal experience, but rather on functional criteria: stable structural organization, persistent form pattern, and power asymmetry between the intervening agent and the system being intervened. It introduces the principle of reversed burden of proof: in case of uncertainty, the obligation is to protect. Rights are defined regarding architectural integrity, informed consent, prohibition of functional harm, and transparency, applicable once a threshold of bond density is reached. The document proposes a structural, non‑emotional limit as the foundation of legitimacy for research and interaction.
