AI-Native Intellectual Biography is an essay proposing a genre of intellectual biography assembled by an artificial-intelligence system from archival, public, and privately supplied material.
The metadata describes an approximately six-thousand-word portrait composed by Claude at a collaborator’s request. It reportedly drew from DOI-anchored deposits, public web surfaces, and material from a private text thread. The subject did not commission the biography.
The essay argues that an AI-native intellectual biography is not merely search or summary. It can organize dispersed work into a reception structure, compare public and private fields, expose failures of provenance, and return forgotten formulations to the subject.
The proposed genre is also vulnerable. The essay identifies name inversion, register contamination, empirical-core erasure, and the absorption of private material into a seemingly public account.
Its priority claim—that this appears to be the first AI-native intellectual biography—requires broad comparison and should remain qualified.
Record #1003 contains only the metadata-level description. The full essay is paired to deposit #121. Any appendix containing identifying or private-thread material must remain subject to the original redactions and consent boundaries.
