Bounded inductive rationality and the LI/BRIA synthesis target are computable agent criteria that quantify over efficiently computable hypotheses, so they sit at or near the poly-time boundary of the computability axis rather than at the logical-induction level proper.

Statement

A formal theory of trust developed as whole-mind models of rationality at polynomial time or below, where the model is itself an implementable AI design, guides AI safety engineering work.

Source

The computability axis of the-program, as its other levels state it (level-above-quantifiable, li-above-poly-time, level-super-turing): this is the level below logical induction. The placement is the filing session's reading; no public source states this line.

Notes

A line recorded and not opened (opened: false). It holds one shared claim, that the LI/BRIA synthesis target sits at or near the polynomial-time boundary (bria-near-the-line). It has no plan root, gets no spell-out unit, and is outside the plan decision.
