Abstract

The El-Rakhawi Theory of Neuro-Juridical Sovereignty in the Age of AI (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.23271595) presents a groundbreaking comparative legal framework protecting cognitive rights between EU models and Global South approaches. It establishes that neural data transcends traditional privacy categories, requiring constitutional-level protection as "inalienable rights" where systemic prohibition replaces individual consent. Central is the Neuro-Juridical Sovereignty Index: NJSI=(M×L×T×E)/[(M×L×T×E)+V×A+ε], where legal variables are operationally defined as normalized composite indices. Under the Weakest-Link Axiom and Asymptotic Perfection Principle (max ≈0.9901), it mathematically proves that cognitive protection collapses without simultaneous optimization of mental privacy, legal robustness, technological transparency, and ethical governance. The theory proposes a Universal Declaration of Cognitive Rights, mandatory Cognitive Impact Assessments, and Independent Neuro-Ethics Tribunals. It criminalizes covert cognitive manipulation and establishes neural data minimization principles for BCIs. Released under the Ferial Zayed Humanitarian License as the definitive blueprint for protecting human consciousness in the algorithmic age.

Gender, Race, and Intersectional Bias in Resume Screening via Language Model Retrieval

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
