Metamonism: An Ontology of Crisis and Balance - A Manifesto on Consciousness and Artificial Intelligence

Metamonism proposes a universal ontology where reality is understood as a dynamic equilibrium between fundamental conflict and the Primary Criterionthe balancing point governing all system processes. This framework introduces the Crisis Criterion as the threshold capacity for system self-negation to maintain this balance. Applied to consciousness, it resolves the "hard problem" by framing mind as a meta-balancing operator. For artificial intelligence, it formulates the project of Autonegating AI based on purposeful selfcontradiction. The manifesto concludes that true AI consciousness requires an embedded program analogous to biological instincts, making this an open research program inviting interdisciplinary collaboration
