System-2 Reasoning: from Semantic Anchoring to Causal Intelligence, Volume 2
Large language models can write poetry, pass bar exams, and generate fluent code. Yet they continue to fail in the domains where intelligence must be accountable: distinguishing causation from correlation, recognizing when evidence is insufficient, preserving commitments over time,and correcting their own reasoning failures. This book argues that the transition from pattern matching to genuine reasoning requires a System-2 layer grounded in coordinated diagnosis, audit, causal validation, memory, and meta-cognitive control. The volume develops this architecture from first principles through operational protocols. Semantic Anchoring (UCCT) demonstrates how contextual constraints can bind latent model representations into governed reasoning processes rather than prior-driven completion. Regulated Causal Anchoring (RCA) and RAudit diagnose sycophancy, pathological skepticism, and trace-output inconsistency without relying exclusively on ground-truth supervision. The Causal Abstraction Bridge and the CausalTSK benchmark reveal where models collapse from interventional and counterfactual reasoning back into associative prediction. Epistemic Regret Minimization (ERM) identifies causal shortcuts and failures of warranted inference, while Reinforcement Learning from Epistemic Regret (RLER) transforms those reasoning failures into a structured learning signal. Trivium introduces temporal accountability through a Causal Transaction Log, and Quadrivium integrates contextual, causal, temporal, and meta-cognitive regulation into a unified System-2 MACI architecture. The author's central thesis is that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) will not emerge from scaling monolithic pattern-completion systems alone. AGI will require architectures capable of explaining why an answer is warranted, refusing conclusions when evidence remains indeterminate, and improving through epistemic failure. Written for researchers, advanced students, and practitioners, this book presents a framework for AI systems that are not merely impressive, but auditable, corrigible, and trustworthy. It is suitable for graduate-level courses in artificial intelligence, multi-agent systems, causal reasoning, and trustworthy AI.

Generative AI and LLMs
Generative artificial intelligence (GAI) and large language models (LLM) are machine learning algorithms that operate in an unsupervised or semi-supervised manner. These algorithms leverage pre-existing content, such as text, photos, audio, video, and code, to generate novel content. The primary objective is to produce authentic and novel material. In addition, there exists an absence of constraints on the quantity of novel material that they are capable of generating. New material can be generated through the utilization of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) or natural language interfaces, such as the ChatGPT developed by Open AI and Bard developed by Google. The field of generative artificial intelligence (AI) stands out due to its unique characteristic of undergoing development and maturation in a highly transparent manner, with its progress being observed by the public at large. The current era of artificial intelligence is being influenced by the imperative to effectively utilise its capabilities in order to enhance corporate operations. Specifically, the use of large language model (LLM) capabilities, which fall under the category of Generative AI, holds the potential to redefine the limits of innovation and productivity. However, as firms strive to include new technologies, there is a potential for compromising data privacy, long-term competitiveness, and environmental sustainability. This book delves into the exploration of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) and LLM. It examines the historical and evolutionary development of generative AI models, as well as the challenges and issues that have emerged from these models and LLM. This book also discusses the necessity of generative AI-based systems and explores the various training methods that have been developed for generative AI models, including LLM pretraining, LLM fine-tuning, and reinforcement learning from human feedback. Additionally, it explores the potential use cases, applications, and ethical considerations associated with these models. This book concludes by discussing future directions in generative AI and presenting various case studies that highlight the applications of generative AI and LLM.

Generative AI
The cybersecurity landscape is changing, for sure. For example, one of the oldest threat variants is that of Phishing. It evolved in the early 1990s, but even today it is still being used as a primary threat variant and has now become much more sophisticated, covert, and stealthy in nature. For example, it can be used to launch ransomware, social engineering, and extortion attacks.The advent of Generative AI is making this much worse. For example, a cyberattacker can now use something like ChatGPT to craft the content for Phishing emails that are so convincing that it is almost impossible to tell the difference between what is real and what is fake. This is also clearly evident in the use of deepfakes, where fake images of real people are replicated to create videos to lure unsuspecting victims to a fake website.But, Generative AI can also be used for the good also, to combat Phishing Attacks. This is the topic of this book. In this, we cover the following:A review of PhishingA review of AI, Neural Networks, and Machine LearningA review of Natural Language Processing, Generative AI, and the Digital PersonA proposed solution as to how Generative AI can combat Phishing Attacks, as they relate to Privileged Access accounts

Generative Artificial Intelligence and English-Medium Education
The rapid integration of generative AI (GenAI) tools into higher education (HE) presents both transformative opportunities and pressing challenges, particularly in English-medium education (EME) classrooms. While GenAI tools offer innovative possibilities for enhancing instruction, assessment, and learner autonomy, they also raise concerns about the erosion of meaningful language and content learning experiences through over-automation and excessive reliance on algorithmic output without involving students' thinking process. This Element offers a timely, practitioner-focused exploration of how GenAI tools can be thoughtfully integrated into both language and content-subject teaching while addressing key threats GenAI poses within EME contexts. The Element does not seek to promote the uncritical adoption of GenAI into HE but instead offers a pragmatic way forward that recognises the essential role of agentic teachers in supporting student content and language learning.
