Which Structural Constraints Are Learnable? A Regime Map for a Minecraft Voxel Generator — Accepted at the FDG 2026 17th PCG Workshop

Code-backed study of structural learnability in 32³ Minecraft voxel generation. VQ-VAE + AR transformer over ~260 block types; 14 structural properties → 9 controllable, 4 approachable, 1 unresponsive. Composite predictor signal × min(CV, 1) reaches Spearman ρ = 0.879 (p = 0.002, n = 10). Public DOI and reproducibility package are available below.

Blackwell Dilemma: Information Value Under Endogenous Feasibility

Information value can be non-monotone in signal informativeness when feasibility is endogenous. A five-state model exhibits an explicit phase transition; classical Blackwell dominance reverses under generic feasibility curvature.

Accountability Arbitrage: Ethical Tensions in AI Agent Accountability Infrastructure — Under review at AI and Ethics

When firms can choose where AI agent actions are reviewed, accountability becomes arbitrageable. Maps power asymmetries in the AEGIS protocol's three-stage review pipeline; identifies labor-market spillovers when downstream verification migrates across jurisdictions.
