⚠️ Student Disclaimer — SMS Analyzer

This document defines the boundaries of use clearly and intentionally.


Educational Use Only#

The SMS Analyzer is not:

  • A diagnostic system
  • A therapeutic tool
  • A medical or mental‑health instrument
  • A self‑assessment framework
  • A substitute for professional education or care

It is a structural sandbox for learning how complex systems—especially minds—can be modeled responsibly.


Supervised, Team‑Based Use Required#

Students must use the SMS Analyzer:

  • In small teams
  • Under instructor or clinician supervision
  • With shared interpretation and reflection

Solo use is explicitly discouraged. Structural reasoning improves through comparison, challenge, and collective calibration.


No Personal Experimentation#

Students must not:

  • Apply the Analyzer to themselves
  • Apply it to others outside approved learning scenarios
  • Attempt to draw conclusions about real individuals
  • Use it to validate or refute personal beliefs
  • Treat outputs as findings or evidence

Virtual ecosystems and simulated scenarios may be used only for learning purposes.


Environmental Context Is Not Attribution#

Optional modules (such as environmental auditory exposure) exist to:

  • Rule out overlooked physical contributors
  • Teach contextual humility
  • Prevent premature internal attribution

They do not establish causation, diagnosis, or explanation.

Captured artifacts (audio, vibration, logs) are treated as contextual references, never as proof.


AI‑Augmentation Is Observational Only#

Any AI‑related components in the SMS Analyzer:

  • Observe alignment and drift
  • Describe autonomy posture
  • Preserve human interpretability

They do not:

  • Make decisions
  • Replace judgment
  • Act autonomously
  • Provide recommendations

Students are learning how to calibrate, not how to delegate.


Interpretation Requires Restraint#

The Analyzer intentionally:

  • Produces multiple models
  • Surfaces uncertainty
  • Flags regime sensitivity
  • Avoids single answers

This is a feature, not a flaw. Students are expected to practice interpretive restraint.


When in Doubt#

If a scenario feels:

  • Personally relevant
  • Emotionally charged
  • Confusing or unsettling

Students should pause and consult their instructor. The SMS Analyzer is not a place to resolve personal concerns.


Core Reminder#

Structure is not judgment.
Context is not conclusion.
Learning is not diagnosis.

The SMS Analyzer exists to help students see clearly, not to decide.
