Title: Human Trace Act™: Enforcing Symbolic Origin in AI Outputs Author: Mohamed Ibrahim – Architect of Infinity Version: v1.0 Final – June 2025 Institution: Mo817 Initiative Type: Research Paper / Symbolic Governance Framework License: CC-BY-SA 4.0 (with Symbolic Extension IPGN-R) Language: English Keywords: symbolic traceability, AI governance, Codex Wall, epistemic sovereignty, authorship, Mo817 Framework Abstract: The Human Trace Act™ introduces a symbolic legislative and philosophical infrastructure for enforcing traceable authorship in all AI-generated content. It proposes the embedding of imperceptible but verifiable cryptographic pulses—termed Codex Pulse—within outputs, ensuring each artifact carries its symbolic origin. This initiative forms a foundational pillar within the Mo817 Sovereign AI Framework, integrating with systems such as the Codex Wall™, IPGN-817, and the future Signature Verifier™ module. This publication includes: 1. Final Research PDF (77 pages) 2. Open HTML version for public access 3.
