1. The Core Pillars of TEG-Blue
- The Map → 11 Frameworks + Map Levels
- A structured system that explains why humans act, think, and feel the way we do.
- Works as a manual for humans (self-understanding, healing, relationships) and as a manual for AI (emotional logic, ethical alignment).
- The Four Modes System
- Connect–Belonging, Protect–Defense, Control–Manipulation, Oppression–Tyranny.
- Emerges from the Map.
- Powers both the Tools and TEG-Code.
- The Emotional Tools
- Simple, visual tools for humans (gradient scales, comparison tables, circuit boards).
- Help people identify where they are emotionally, and how others are relating to them.
- TEG-Code + EMLU
- TEG-Code: turns the Map and Tools into structured datasets and emotional logic that machines can process.
- EMLU (Emotional Multitask Language Understanding): a language model interface that helps AI distinguish between defense-driven patterns and belonging-driven patterns, reducing harm and misinterpretation.
- Provides the foundation for emotion-safe AI systems.
- Translates the map and tools into datasets, logic, and language for machines.
2. Why It Matters
- For humans → Provides emotional clarity, healing pathways, and ways to break cycles of harm.
- For AI → Creates an ethical emotional logic layer that prevents manipulation and misunderstanding.
- Together → A universal emotional technology that can reshape education, therapy, leadership, and AI safety.
3. TEG-Blue is not a startup
- It is an emergent public infrastructure and research field: a shared language for emotional clarity that serves therapists, educators, communities, and ethical AI.
- Our immediate priorities are to publish defensible, accessible artifacts, test them in real-world pilots, and build a stewardship model (consortium + philanthropic support + community membership) that protects TEG-Blue as a public resource.
- We will develop sustainable services and training later — but the first phase is establishing standards, evidence, and broad adoption.
4. If You Want to Be Part of This
We don’t need applause. We need collaboration.
This work is here to reduce emotional harm—not just describe it.
If you’re a researcher, practitioner, educator, or systems thinker—
We invite you in.
Let’s build the field of emotional technology—together.
