IPM borrows five principles (level separation, latent inference, population over atomism, encoding–decoding duality, causal perturbation), extends Marr's three levels to five (task, semantic, algorithmic, physical events, thermodynamic), and defines cross-level triangulation for AI as E = (output, semantic, internal trace, ablation, hardware) evidence with a graded confidence in μI from D (behavioral) to A+ (physical-semantic alignment).",
